Diagnosis of the Three-Dimensional Circulation Associated with Mesoscale Motion in the California Current
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A high-resolution upper-ocean survey of a cyclonic jet meander and an adjacent cyclonic eddy in the California Current region near 38°N, 126°W was conducted as part of the summer of 1993 Eastern Boundary Currents program. ...
A Noninterpolated Estimate of Horizontal Spatial Covariance from Nonorthogonally and Irregularly Sampled Scalar Velocities
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThis paper presents a least squares method to estimate the horizontal (isotropic or anisotropic) spatial covariance of two-dimensional orthogonal vector components, without introducing an intervening mapping step ...
Do Nonorthogonally and Irregularly Sampled Scalar Velocities Contain Sufficient Information to Reconstruct an Orthogonal Vector Current Field?
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThis paper addresses how well a two-dimensional orthogonal vector current field can be reconstructed from a set of nonorthogonally and irregularly sampled scalar velocity data. High-frequency radar (HFR)-derived ...
