Wind-Driven Ageostrophic Transport in the North Equatorial Countercurrent of the Eastern Pacific at 95°W
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Observations of horizontal velocity from two shipboard acoustic Doppler current profilers (ADCPs), as well as wind, temperature, and salinity observations from a cruise during June?July 2001, are used to compute a simplified ...
Eulerian Measurements of the North Atlantic Deep Water Deep Western Boundary Current at 18°S
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: An 18-month time series of moored current meter observations near 18°S in the Atlantic is used to study the deep western boundary current (DWBC) of North Atlantic Deep Water (NADW). This flow is taken to extend from about ...
Can Luzon Strait Transport Play a Role in Conveying the Impact of ENSO to the South China Sea?
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The Luzon Strait transport (LST) from the Pacific into the South China Sea (SCS) is examined using results from a high-resolution ocean general circulation model. The LST from the model has a mean value of 2.4 Sv (Sv ≡ 106 ...
