Abstract:
Abstract NOAA ’s Global Drifter Program (GDP) manages a global array of ~1250 active satellite-tracked surface drifting buoys (“drifters”) in collaboration with numerous national and international partners. To better manage the drifter array and to assess the performance of various drifter manufacturers, it is important to discriminate between drifters that cease transmitting because of internal failure and those that cease because of external factors such as running aground or being picked up. An accurate assessment of where drifters run aground would also allow the observations to be used to

Abstract:
Concurrent measurements by satellite tracked drifters of different hull and drogue configurations and coastal high-frequency radar reveal substantial differences in estimates of the near-surface velocity. These measurements are important for understanding and predicting material transport on the ocean surface as well as the vertical structure of the near-surface currents. These near-surface current observations were obtained during a field experiment in the northern Gulf of Mexico intended to test a new ultra-thin drifter design. During the experiment, thirty small cylindrical drifters with 5

AbstractThe Lagrangian Submesoscale Experiment (LASER) was designed to study surface flows during winter conditions in the northern Gulf of Mexico. More than 1000 mostly biodegradable drifters were launched. The drifters consisted of a surface floater extending 5 cm below the surface, containing the satellite tracking system, and a drogue extending 60 cm below the surface, hanging beneath the floater on a flexible tether. On some floats, the drogue separated from the floater during storms. This paper describes methods to detect drogue loss based on two properties that distinguish drogued from

AbstractThe use of Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS)-tracked Lagrangian drifters allows more realistic quantification of fluid motion and dispersion coefficients than Eulerian techniques because such drifters are analogs of particles that are relevant to flow field characterization and pollutant dispersion. Using the fast-growing real-time kinematic (RTK) positioning technique derived from GNSS, drifters are developed for high-frequency (10 Hz) sampling with position estimates with centimeter accuracy. The drifters are designed with small size and less direct wind drag to follow the su

Abstract:
Abstract Surface convergence in the ocean is associated with accumulation of buoyant pollutants as well as with vertical transport that is important to biological activity. Such surface convergence regions are marked by a high dilation rate, i.e., the finite time Lagrangian average divergence. Dilation-rate observations are most easily derived from the change of the area encompassed by a drifter swarm over time. The technological advances that have enabled the deployment of large numbers of drifters in a single experiment have raised new questions about optimal deployment strategies for extrac

AbstractDifferential kinematic flow properties (DKP), such as vertical vorticity, have been estimated from surface drifters. However, previous DKP error estimates were a posteriori and did not include correlated errors across drifters. To accurately estimate submesoscale (≤1 km) DKPs from drifters, errors must be better understood. Here, the a priori vorticity standard error is derived that depends upon the number of drifters in the cluster, the drifter cluster major and minor axes lengths, the instrument velocity error, and the cross-drifter error correlation.

A field and numerical modelling investigation of these variable rotational currents has been carried out.

The University of Washington Applied Physics Lab team collected these data using microSWIFT wave buoys at the USACE Field Research Facility as part of the USCRP funded project DUNEX (During Nearshore Events Experiment). The files contain both directly measured and computed quantities from the drifting wave buoys. The collection and processing of these data is explained in the github repository at https://github.com/SASlabgroup/DUNEXMainExp along with examples of how these data can be used. The link to the actual data files is https://chldata.erdc.dren.mil/thredds/catalog/frf/projects/Dunex/UW_
