Abstract :
We here report on a preliminary analysis of data taken by a coastal HF radar system (CODAR) which was operated during the ARSLOE experiment. The system produces the first five Fourier coefficients of the directional ocean waveheight spectrum and two-dimensional maps of radial surface current velocity. We compare our results for ocean waves with measurements made by the NDBO data buoy XERB.
