Key Points

This research aims to analyze the characteristics of the marine atmospheric boundary layer downstream of Barbados.
Utilized datasets from synthetic aperture radar for wind speed estimates.
Collected in-situ meteorological data from wind, temperature, and moisture towers.
Included observations from radiosondes for vertical profile comparisons.
Incorporated model data from COAMPS for interdisciplinary analysis.
Identified distinct diurnal patterns in wind speed and temperature.
Demonstrated variations in moisture profiles throughout the day.
Highlighted the reliability of SAR retrievals in estimating wind characteristics.

Implication

Analysis reveals wind and temperature patterns in the marine atmosphere downstream of Barbados, indicating key environmental dynamics.
