Abstract: A wind-driven model of coastal upwelling induced into a stratified, rotating ocean is solved numerically. The circulation is on an f plane and longshore variations are neglected. A multilevel model is derived, but only ...

Abstract: The ? effect is found to produce a poleward undercurrent in a wind-driven model of an eastern ocean circulation. The model is on an x, z plane and longshore derivatives of the velocity field are neglected. The nonlinear ...

Abstract: The dynamics of the eddy shedding by the Loop Current in the Gulf of Mexico have been investigated using three nonlinear numerical models: two-layer, barotropic and reduced gravity. The barotropic and reduced gravity models ...

Abstract: We have sought to simulate and understand consistently observed features of the Somali Current system during the southwest monsoon using a two-layer, nonlinear numerical ocean model driven from rest by a uniform south wind ...

Abstract: El Niño may be defined oceanographically as a massive influx of warm water into the coastal region of Ecuador and Peru. We have tested the hypothesis that these rare events occur after a substantial reduction of the ...

Abstract: A time-dependent, two-dimensional numerical model is constructed by coupling a four-layer atmosphere to a two-layer ocean through fluxes of heat and momentum. Idealized experiments are performed to investigate the oceanic ...
