Abstract
We studied experimentally (in the laboratory) a behavior of characteristics of the water surface being initially under the room temperature and sharply cooled with liquid nitrogen—the variations of an intensity of natural MCW radiation at the wavelength 2.25 cm and infrared (IR) heat radiation in the window 10.5 mcm as well as a value of heat content (enthalpy) in the upper water surface layer. A comparison of evolutions of heat content computed from the difference between temperatures of upper and bottom boundaries of the subsurface layer with evolutions of MCW and IR radiation intensity was conducted. Basing on the data of oceanographic, meteorological, and aerologic measurements from the R/Vs Victor Bugaev, Musson, and Volna in the period of the stationary phase of the NEWFOUEX-88 and ATLANTEX-90 experiments we compared the heat and impulse fluxes recorded by the R/Vs with their SSM/I estimates derived from the DMSP satellite F-08.
