Abstract: Turbulence measurements from the central equatorial Pacific in February 1982 have been analyzed and compared to synoptic CTD and current velocity profiles and current meter data. These suggest considerably more time (if ...

Abstract: The authors describe a method utilizing short-duration drifter tracks to compute rotary velocity amplitudes and phases for tidal frequency bands. These are compared to amplitudes and phases from a tidal model, revealing ...

Abstract: Tidal constants are computed from TOPEX/Poseidon sea level data in the northeast Pacific Ocean for the period of September 1992?December 1997. The method used is harmonic analysis. Tidal constituents are also calculated ...

Abstract: Internal M2 tides near Hawaii are investigated with a two-dimensional, two-layer numerical model. It is seen that along the Hawaiian Ridge barotropic tidal energy is transformed into baroclinic internal tides that propagate ...
