RISDynamics of Cross-Isobath Dense Water Transport Induced by Slope Topography
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ynamics of cross-isobath downslope transport of a dense water mass induced by small-scale topographic variation is investigated based on a high-resolution numerical experiment with realistic settings, a simplified analytical ...
Brine-Driven Eddies under Sea Ice Leads and Their Impact on the Arctic Ocean Mixed Layer
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Eddy generation induced by a line-shaped salt flux under a sea ice lead and associated salt transport are investigated using a three-dimensional numerical model. The model is designed to represent a typical condition for ...
A Wave-Resolving Simulation of Langmuir Circulations with a Nonhydrostatic Free-Surface Model: Comparison with Craik–Leibovich Theory and an Alternative Eulerian View of the Driving Mechanism
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThe present study performs a wave-resolving simulation of wind-driven currents under monochromatic surface gravity waves using the latest nonhydrostatic free-surface numerical model. Here, phase speed of the waves ...

Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractFujiwara et al. explicitly simulated Langmuir circulations using a wave-resolving simulation (WRS) technique and found that the residual wave effect on vorticity was well represented by the vortex force of the ...
A Numerical Investigation of Formation and Variability of Antarctic Bottom Water off Cape Darnley, East Antarctica
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: t several locations around Antarctica, dense water is formed as a result of intense sea ice formation. When this dense water becomes sufficiently denser than the surrounding water, it descends the continental slope and ...
