ASIST

ASIST is a unique facility for teaching and for researchers from around the world to study processes at or near the air-water interface in a well controlled environment with state-of-the-art technology. Some of the ongoing or planned research projects in ASIST are focused on:

• fluxes of momentum, heat and mass across the air-water interface including the exchange of gases and aerosols.
• Turbulence in both air and water
• Wave dynamics
• Remote sensing of surface winds, waves and temperatures
• Chemical and biological processes at and near the air-water interface
• Technology development for high resolution wave and flux measurements
• Calibration of meteorological and oceanographic sensors
