Collaborations and discussions with Nikolai Vershinsky (P.P. Shirshov
(EUMETSAT), Julian McCreary (NSU and UH), Mark Donelan (UM),
Kristina Katsaros (AOML/NOAA), Eugene Terray (WHOI), and Hiroshi
Matsuura (JAMSTEC) helped to motivate writing this book.
We are grateful to Michael Gregg (APL/UW), Anatoly Arjannikov
(Granit), Robert Weller (WHOI), Chris Fairall (ETL/NOAA), Robert Pinkel
(SIO/UCSD), Peter Hacker (UH), Robert Weisberg (USF), Frank Bradley
and Stuart Godfrey (CSIRO) for fruitful collaboration during TOGA
COARE, when many results discussed in this book were obtained. Several
topics that later formed the foundation for this book were presented during
the 1980s at the Theoretical Seminar of the P. P. Shirshov Institute of
Oceanology led by Prof. Grigory Barenblatt (now with UC Berkley).
Selected parts of this book were presented at the WHOI GFD Summer
School during 2002 and 2003 and at the UM Applied Marine Physics
laboratory during 2000-2005. Follow up discussions provided important
feedback.
Dean Richard Dodge of the NOVA Southeastern University
Oceanographic Center, and university President Ray Ferrero, granted
sabbatical leave to the lead author during which the bulk of this monograph
was undertaken. Support from the Office of Naval Research, NOAA, and
NSF are also gratefully acknowledged. The second author was generously
supported by the University of Hawaii and by the National Science
Foundation during the research leading up to this book, and during its
production.
Technical help with the preparation of the manuscript by Nancy Paquin
(UH), Kevin Kohler (NSU), Sharon DeCarlo (UH), Rebekah Walker (NSU)
is gratefully acknowledged. Their important contributions and support were
critical to the successful conclusion of this project.
