UpTempO Buoys for Understanding and Prediction
The overall goal of the UpTempO (= Upper Temperature of the Polar Oceans) project is to better map and explain the variations in the amount of heat in the upper oceans of the polar regions. Time scales of interest span the diurnal to interannual; spatial scales are generally synoptic. Meeting this g...

Summary: | The overall goal of the UpTempO (= Upper Temperature of the Polar Oceans) project is to better map and explain the variations in the amount of heat in the upper oceans of the polar regions. Time scales of interest span the diurnal to interannual; spatial scales are generally synoptic. Meeting this goal will help in the understanding of the evolving sea ice pack as well as changes in lower atmospheric structure, marine and coastal ecosystems.
