Abstract: odel studies and observations in the Hudson River estuary indicate that frontogenesis occurs as a result of topographic forcing. Bottom fronts form just downstream of lateral constrictions, where the width of the estuary ...

Abstract: igh-resolution observations of velocity, salinity, and turbulence quantities were collected in a salt wedge estuary to quantify the efficiency of stratified mixing in a high-energy environment. During the ebb tide, a ...

Abstract: A set of moored, bottom-mounted and shipboard measurements, obtained in a straight section of the lower Hudson estuary during late summer and early fall of 1995, determine velocity, density, and along-channel pressure ...
