Abstract: A large number of vertical profiles of horizontal current were observed during the last two years in the Florida Straits. For a two-week set of observations, it is found that westward meandering of the Florida Current is ...

Abstract: Observations of the equatorial current system have revealed that its structure is subject to considerable variations. To clarify the nature of these variations and their dependence on the surface winds, measurements on a ...

Abstract: A 50-day time series was obtained from a current meter mooring in the Florida Current off Miami. The results agree with earlier observations regarding the significance of several-day oscillations in the Gulf Stream. The ...

Abstract: The vertical displacements associated with oscillations near the local inertial frequency f, in a stratified ocean, are found to be significant, even very close to f. For a frequency, ?=(1+?)f, the ratio of rms vertical ...

Abstract: Temperature and current records were obtained from four subsurface moorings deployed in the source region of the Somali Current from mid-January to mid-July 1976. The first part of the records from January until early April ...

Abstract: To assess the importance of possible feedbacks between ocean and atmosphere in the Arabian Sea, we computed a preliminary heat budget for the upper ocean layer. The observed total heat loss during the Southwest Monsoon ...

Abstract: Current measurements from three stations along the east coast of Florida at about 300 m water depth with a maximum longshore separation of 180 km were used to analyze for the presence of propagating waves. The analysis was ...
