Research Interests

Research interests include air-sea interaction (particularly in western boundary currents and in the tropical Pacific); reference station analyses; upper ocean heat, salt, and momentum balances; diurnal-interannual variability; and eddy-mean flow interaction.

Ocean Climate Stations

Meghan Cronin leads the Ocean Climate Stations program at NOAA Pacific Marine Environmental Laboratory (PMEL). Ocean Climate Stations are moored buoys that carry a suite of sensors to monitor important climate processes. PMEL's Ocean Climate Stations are part of the global network of OceanSITES time series reference sites.
