Power Spectral Density of Surface Heat and Momentum Fluxes from the R/V Knorr during the 1997 Labrador Sea Deep Convection Experiment

Caption: Power spectral density of heat and momentum flux from the 1997 Knorr cruise based on the flux time series . Note that most of the variance is on time scales of greater than one day, indicating the importance of synopic events in controlling the fluxes.
