The Atlantic inflow in the Western Alboran Sea
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: An extensive dataset collected in the Alboran Sea during the 1982 Donde Va? experiment is used to characterize the kinematics and dynamics of the inflow of Atlantic water into the Mediterranean Sea. The veering of the ...
Low-Frequency Current Regimes over the Bering Sea Shelf
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Using direct current measurements made during the period 1975?81, we describe the general circulation over the southeastern Bering Sea and differentiate it by regimes related to depth and forcing mechanisms. Three regimes ...
Observation of a Baroclinic Eddy: An Example of Mesoscale Variability in the Bering Sea
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Drift buoys with shallow (17 m) drogues, released during May 1977 and tracked by satellite, delineated an eddy in the southeastern Bering Sea. Located above complex topography having a depth range of 200 to 3000 m, the ...
Westward Intensification of the Mean Circulation on the Bering Sea Shelf
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Most of the water that eventually flows northward through Bering Strait originates about 500 km south, seaward of the shelfbreak in the Bering Sea. Cumulative observational evidence supports the idea that most of this ...
