Dale F. Leipper - Publications

Author of some 90 publications and reports on oceanography and marine meteorology including currents in the Gulf of Mexico, hurricane-ocean interaction, ocean temperature variations, and forecasting of west coast fog and stratus. The 1948 and 1968 articles written about San Diego area conditions are still in use today by U.S. Navy
