Abstract:

This report is an addendum to the earlier report, Rogers et al. (2018). The model-data inversion (to create distributions of dissipation rate as a function of frequency) of that report is repeated using ice concentration from the AMSR2 instrument processed using the Bootstrap algorithm. The resulting distributions (or profiles) are averaged, using groupings by buoy type, and ice concentration. The average profiles are fitted to polynomials following Meylan et al. (2014) and compared to other data and average profiles from the literature. Unlike the Rogers et al. (2018) study, we focus specifically on one particular wave experiment, Wave Array #3 of the Sea State cruise.
