Internal Waves in the Strait of Messina Studied by a Numerical Model and Synthetic Aperture Radar Images from the ERS 1/2 Satellites
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A new numerical two-layer model is presented, which describes the generation of internal tidal bores and their disintegration into internal solitary waves in the Strait of Messina. This model is used to explain observations ...
Sediments in Bottom-Arrested Gravity Plumes: Numerical Case Studies
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: In the present paper a hydrostatic ?reduced gravity? model, generally used to simulate transient bottom-arrested gravity plumes, was coupled with a sediment transport model. The coupled model considers the respective ...
Sea Level Variations in the Western Mediterranean Studied by a Numerical Tidal Model of the Strait of Gibraltar
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Aspects of the sea level changes in the western Mediterranean Sea are investigated using a numerical tidal model of the Strait of Gibraltar. As a prerequisite, the performance of this model, that is, a two-dimensional, ...
