Abstract: The problem of finding baroclinic coastal-trapped wave modes is generalized from subinertial to superinertial frequencies at which complete trapping can only occur in special cases. Modes are found by a numerical resonance ...

Abstract: Upwelling jets flow alongshore in approximate geostrophic balance with the onshore pressure gradient induced by coastal upwelling. Observations of such jets have shown that they often move offshore downstream of capes, ...

Abstract: The nature of the transition in coastal-trapped wave behavior from trapped, subinertial modes to imperfectly trapped, superinertial waves (not modes), is investigated. When formulated purely in terms of pressure, the ...

Abstract: By mapping the three-dimensional density field while simultaneously tracking a subsurface, isopycnal float, direct observations of upwelling along a shelfbreak front were made on the southern flank of Georges Bank. The ...
