RISA Test of the Parsons–Veronis Hypothesis on the Separation of the Gulf Stream
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The Parsons?Veronis model, based on a two-layer wind-driven ocean, predicts the latitude at which the western boundary current separates from the western boundary. It has been tested on the Gulf Stream using both satellite ...
On the Nature of Temporal Variability of the Gulf Stream Path from 75° to 55°W
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he response of the Gulf Stream (GS) system to atmospheric forcing is generally linked either to the basin-scale winds on the subtropical gyre or to the buoyancy forcing from the Labrador Sea. This study presents a multiscale ...
Contrasting Response of the Eastern and Western North Atlantic Circulation to an Episodic Climate Event
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: egional observational studies in the North Atlantic have noted significant hydrographical shifts in 1997?98 because of the episodic drop in the North Atlantic oscillation (NAO) during 1996. Investigation using a basin-scale ...
Circulation and Dynamics of the Western North Atlantic. Part I: Multiscale Feature Models
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This is the first part of a three-part study on the circulation, dynamics, and mesoscale forecasting of the western North Atlantic. The overall objective of this series of studies is threefold: 1) to present a methodology ...
