Abstract
Emerging technological capabilities of in situ and remote sensing observational techniques are providing reliable, spatially-involving snapshots of submesoscale oceanic flows. Surface current observations from several experiments in the UK as well as HIRES, OPRC and DUCK94 experiments have suggested that the high-frequency (HF) radar-derived surface currents agree well with subsurface time series measurements. These HF-radar surface current measurements not only detect the low-frequency and tidal currents, but also internal waves including near-inertial motions. The combined approach of subsurface profiling with high-resolution surface current images described provides data to resolve a spectrum of these oceanic processes.
