Equatorial Kelvin and Inertio-Gravity Waves in Zonal Shear Flow
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The interaction of geostrophic zonal mean currents in an equatorial ocean with free, neutrally stable, internal Kelvin and inertio-gravity waves is investigated using a two-layer, reduced-gravity model. Solutions in the ...
Space/Time Structure of the Near-Surface Temperature Field During the NORPAX Pole Experiment
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: During January and February 1974 the NORPAX POLE experiment was carried out in the central Pacific to begin collection of data needed to design a large-scale ocean/atmosphere monitoring program. This paper describe features ...
Measurements of Gulf Stream Meandering and Evidence of Seasonal Thermocline Development Using Long-Range Acoustic Transmissions
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Phase-coded signals with 60 rms resolution were transmitted twice weekly for several months from acoustic sources at ?2000 m depth in the Sargasso Sea to three bottom-mounted receives designed as West, East, and North ...
