Abstract

Wind Stress from GLOBEC Mooring ST1, the Nantucket Lightship, and buoys 44005, 44003, 44008, 44011, and 44018 in the Gulf of Maine and Georges Bank from 1975-2007

Wind Stress calculated for NOAA Weather Buoys,
Nantucket Lightship and Globec Mooring ST1

Wind Stress as calculated by Large & Pond (JPO, '81) where the wind is corrected to 10m elevation.

Matlab code ("wstr.m") & raw data available on request from Jim Manning.

Additional information is available from Manning & Strout (2001).
