Abstract: Time-averaged circulation is examined using historical hydrographic data near the Australia and Papua New Guinea coast in the Pacific. By averaging the data along isopycnal surfaces in a 0.5° ? 0.5° grid, the authors are ...

Abstract: The northward intrusion of Antarctic Intermediate Water (AAIW) is examined using historical data combined with synoptic observations from a repeated hydrographic section in the western Pacific Ocean. The results of this ...

Abstract: An empirical forced wave model of currents and thermocline displacements in the coastal zone of Lake Ontario is derived from data from the International Field Year for the Great Lakes (1972). The model consists of three ...

Abstract: Two distinct types of 18°C water (Subtropical Mode Water) were observed during the POLYMODE Local Dynamics Experiment (LDE; May?July 1978; 31.0°N, 69.5°W). These were revealed on isopyncals by salinity histograms which ...

Abstract: Hydrographic measurements from the POLYMODE Local Dynamics Experiment (LDE; 31°N, 69.5°W; May?July 1978) are examined for highly anomalous, outlying observations of salinity, oxygen and vortex stretching on isopycnal ...

Abstract: In the POLYMODE Local Dynamics Experiment (31°N; 69.5°W) a small cyclonic eddy was discovered and mapped. The eddy was characterized by an upward doming of isotherms in the upper part of the main thermocline. The dynamical ...

Abstract: The origin and pathway of the thermostad water in the eastern equatorial Pacific Ocean, often referred to as the equatorial 13°C Water, are investigated using a simulated passive tracer and its adjoint, based on circulation ...

Abstract: Beta-spiral calculations are presented using averaged western North Atlantic hydrographic data from the period 1914?73. Profiles of long-term mean geostrophic flow relative to ISM db along 70°W from 26 to 32°N are shown. ...

Abstract: The seven intensive hydrographic surveys of temperature, salinity and oxygen of the POLYMODE local Dynamics Experiment (LDE) (15 May?15 July 1978) were carded out in a 200 km-wide octagonal region centered at 31°05?N, ...
