Scientific paper

High spatial resolution QuikSCAT data are used to examine surface winds, divergence, and vorticity over oceanic regions during the boreal summer. These analyses are compared to those from earlier observational studies, as well as ECMWF and NCEP reanalysis products. QuikSCAT analyses generally confirm the results from early studies and the reanalyses, but add important details to our view of the surface circulation in Atlantic and East Pacific regions.
