Salinity Processes in the Upper Ocean Regional Study: Transcript
Update on SPURS2 Fresh SPURS and SPURS1 synthesis Update from Dr Eric Lindstrom SPURS main question What is controlling the upper ocean salinity Will be addressed with interagency and international collaboration using measurements from satellites ships drifters floats gliders AUVs and modeling.
