HF Radar Observations: Currents & Winds
Satellite Scatterometer Measurement of Sea Surface Winds
Optical Observations of marine Ecology and Constituents
5. Active/Passive Remote Sensing
6. Water Current Measurements
State of Current Measurement Systems
Performance of ADCP's
Turbulence/Bottom Sensors
New Developments
Surface Drifters
7. Wave and Tide Sensors
8. Real Time Observations
9. Geophysical Monitoring
10. In-situ Measurement
11. Data from Refurbished Sensors
If you wish to submit an abstract in any of these topics, please send it to:
