Near-Inertial Surface Currents around Islands
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
On the Vertical Structure of Deep-Ocean Subinertial Variability
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Internal Tide Convergence and Mixing in a Submarine Canyon
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: bservations from Eel Canyon, located on the north coast of California, show that elevated turbulence in the full water column arises from the convergence of remotely generated internal wave energy. The incoming semidiurnal ...
On the predictability of sea surface height around Palau
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: As part of the Flow Encountering Abrupt Topography (FLEAT) program, an array of pressure-sensor equipped inverted echo sounders (PIESs) was deployed north of Palau where the westward-flowing North Equatorial Current ...
Observations of Diurnal Coastal-Trapped Waves with a Thermocline-Intensified Velocity Field
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractUsing 18 days of field observations, we investigate the diurnal (D1) frequency wave dynamics on the Tasmanian eastern continental shelf. At this latitude, the D1 frequency is subinertial and separable from the ...
Energy Flux and Dissipation in Luzon Strait: Two Tales of Two Ridges
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: nternal tide generation, propagation, and dissipation are investigated in Luzon Strait, a system of two quasi-parallel ridges situated between Taiwan and the Philippines. Two profiling moorings deployed for about 20 days ...
Climate Process Team on Internal-Wave Driven Ocean Mixing
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: cent advances in our understanding of internal-wave driven turbulent mixing in the ocean interior are summarized. New parameterizations for global climate ocean models, and their climate impacts, are introduced.
