Abstract

Characteristics of the air-sea interaction in the surface and wave layers from the coupled boundary layers air-sea transfer under low wind (CBLAST) main field campaign are discussed. The data used at the time of the writing were from the Air-Sea Interaction Tower (ASIT), which is about 2 miles south of Martha's Vineyard, MA and is in 15 meters of water. As the wind travel much faster than the wave, the variation of the roughness length is relatively small and the momentum transfer is relatively constant with height. It indicates that the MO-similarity theory may be applicable and the tower layer within the surface layer.
