Sea Atmosphere Interaction And Climate Laboratory

Sea-Air Interaction and Climate Laboratory (SAIL) develops research in ocean-atmosphere interaction and climate dynamics. Being a research unit of P.P. Shirshov Institute of Oceanology, Russian Academy of Science (IORAS) we are especially focused on the ocean's role in climate variability and change. However, our mandate is not only limited to the ocean research.

The next cruise under the program MORE has come to the end. The cruise passed onboard the Russian RV "Аcademician Ioffe" in September, 2010. Measurements of radiation fluxes were carry out from cape Farewell to the North Sea.
The main goal of the Program MORE is the development and validation of the advanced parameterizations of surface radiative fluxes at sea on the basis of direct measurements and radiative transfer modeling. The program MORE has been begun in 2004.
