Abstract: Classical models of tides in open coastal regions employ ad hoc conditions on the open boundaries instead of reliable sea level data on the coastline in order to achieve a well-posed problem. A weighted variational formulation ...

Abstract: The solution of a linear model of barotropic M2 tides in Bass Strait is not consistent with new high quality tide gage and current meter data. This is attributed to the method used to estimate the forcing due to incoming ...

Abstract: A global ocean circulation model, driven by observed interannual fluxes, is used to gain insight into how sea surface temperature anomalies (SSTAs, i.e., variations from the mean seasonal signal) in the tropical and ...

Abstract: The near-surface dynamics and thermodynamics of the Indian Ocean are examined in a global ocean general circulation model (OGCM) with enhanced tropical resolution. The model uses a Seager-type heat flux formulation (weak ...

Abstract: he seasonal cycle of blocking in the Australian region is shown to be associated with major seasonal temperature changes over continental Antarctica (approximately 15°?35°C) and Australia (about 8°?17°C) and with minor ...
