The Surface Heat Budget of the Arctic Ocean ( SHEBA) program is a coordinated program to address the interaction of the atmosphere, clouds, ice cover and upper ocean in determining the energy balance in the Arctic. A year-long ice camp has been established in the Arctic Ocean in October 1997 to allow a range of observation systems to be deployed to address these issues.
Description
The Ocean Turbulence Laboratory in the Oceanography Department at the Naval Postgraduate School has an active research program addressing a range of ocean turbulent boundary layer problems. The group has developed observational systems for studying sub-ice boundary layers in polar regions, coastal internal waves, solitons and turbulence over the continental shelf, and the wave forced boundary bottom boundary layer over the inner shelf and surf zone.
