a Turbulent (latent plus sensible) heat flux, b sea surface temperature (SST), c air temperature, d air-sea temperature difference, e wind speed, f specific humidity, g air pressure, and h sea surface salinity (SSS) on the A (red lines) and B (blue lines) tracks. Values were averaged within approximately 2 km intervals. Positions where the Saildrone observed the maximal surface current speed on the tracks are matched to make a comparison. Red arrows indicate locations of SST peaks corresponding to wind speed peaks
