GLAS Globak Analysis of Ocean Surface Wind and Wind Stress Using SEASAT Scatterometer Winds

We present instantaneous and 10 day averaged fields of surface wind, wind stress, curl of the wind stress and Ekman transport divergence. These fields are derived from the GLAS four-dimensional analysis/forecast cycle, for the period 6-16 September 1978, using conventional data, VTPR soundings and subjectively dealiased SASS winds.
