Wave and Wind Turbulence in the Upper Ocean

Waves on the ocean carry energy and one wave transfers energy to another. Wave on the ocean surface also dissipate energy to the surrounding atmosphere and contribute in the ocean and atmosphere energy budget and, thereby playing a role in long term climate change. Therefore, it is important to understand wave dynamics and the long-term effect. they have on the environment. The thesis includes detailed analysis of the dynamics of ocean waves and their effect on the surrounding environment.
