Variation of Friction Velocity Across the Surface Marginal Ice Zone in the East Greenland Sea.
The Marginal Ice Zone Experiment (MIZEX) took place in the summer of 1984. All data presented in this thesis are from the 15 June - 15 July time frame of the MIZEX. Of primary concern in the marginal ice zone is the surface stress, which contributes to changing the upper part of the ocean, to ocean...

The stress values were obtained using the dissipation method. These values will be compared to the Large and Pond bulk-formulated drag coefficients, which are open water values.
