an additional 3.8 h. Primary sporidia appeared to be...
Observations of wind speed and direction, air and sea temperature,
and solar radiation were obtained from an array of buoys in
JASIN. The observations were analyzed to show spatial and temporal
variability. Spectra of wind speed and air and sea temperature were
computed to illustrate the distribution of variance over...
