An EC MAST project whose primary objective is to measure the spatial and temporal variability of waves and currents in coastal regions using the full range of state of the art measurement techniques and models. The measurement systems used in this experiment include HF radar, synthetic aperture radar (SAR), satellite altimetry, accelerometers, ADCP, current meters, pressure cells, and X-band ground-based radar since one of the primary goals is the intercomparison of these techniques.
