Abstract: An algorithm is described for computing salinity as a continuous function of potential temperature for the western North Atlantic. The algorithm uses historical data compiled by Worthington and Melcalf (1961) for the deep ...

Abstract: A single nonlinear internal wave tracked more than 100 wavelengths across Oregon?s continental shelf over a 12-h period exhibited nearly constant wave speed, c = 0.75 m s?1, and amplitude, a = 15 m. The wavelength L gradually ...

Abstract: A midlevel, coastally trapped atmospheric event occurred along the California coast 10?11 June 1994. This feature reversed the surface wind field along the coast in a northerly phase progression. Along the central California ...

Abstract: Detailed observations of the structure within internal solitary waves propagating shoreward over Oregon's continental shelf reveal the evolving nature of interfaces as they become unstable and break, creating turbulent ...

Abstract: Three Meddies were tracked for up to two years in the Canary Basin using neutrally buoyant SOFAR floats. These Meddies have cores of warm, salty Mediterranean Water and are approximately 100 km in diameter, 800 m thick, ...

Abstract: A coastally trapped disturbance (CTD), characterized by southerly flow at the surface on 10?11 June 1994, was observed from the California Bight to Bodega Bay during a field experiment along the California coast. (North?south ...
