A rich and unique set of observations collected before, during and after the passage of Hurricane Gilbert in the gulf of Mexico was collected in 1998and its analysis is almost completed. The purpose of the study is to better understand the three-dimensional response of the upper ocean to hurricanes in the context of near-inertial wave dynamics. The rate of propagation of vertical energy from the mixed layer into the thermocline is estimated from near-inertial rotating current vectors. The results are also compared with numerical and analytical models.

1998年收集了墨西哥湾飓风吉尔伯特（Gilbert）之前，之中和之后收集的一系列独特的观察结果，其分析几乎完成了。该研究的目的是更好地理解在近惯性波动力学的背景下，上海对飓风的三维反应。从近惯性旋转电流向量估算了从混合层到热跃层的垂直能传播速率。结果还与数值和分析模型进行了比较。
