Variations in Ocean Surface Temperature due to Near-Surface Flow: Straining the Cool Skin Layer
The aqueous thermal boundary layer near to the ocean surface, or skin layer, has thickness O(1 mm) and plays an important role in controlling the exchange of heat between the atmosphere and the ocean. Theoretical arguments and experimental measurements are used to investigate the dynamics of the ski...
