The Control of Fjord Circulation by Fortnightly Modulation of Tidal Mixing Processes
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Tidal processes that control basin?ocean water exchange across a sill, namely, the fortnightly modulation of mixing intensity associated with the spring-neap tidal cycle, are examined. The study proceeds analytically by ...
Vorticity Waves over Strong Topography
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Analytical solutions are found for topographic waves propagating over step bottom slopes in a two-layer infinite channel. From the inviscid unforced long-wave equation for a two-layer fluid on an f-plane, it is shown, under ...
An Analysis of the Low-Frequency Current Fluctuations in the Strait of Georgia, from June 1984 until January 1985
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A description of the low-frequency (ap;10 to 30 days period) current fluctuations in the Strait of Georgia is presented. Velocity time series from four cyclesonde moorings and five current meter mooring, spanning the time ...
