Abstract: The effect of linear bottom friction on free topographic (second class) waves on a sloping beach is investigated. To handle the coastal singularity in the friction terms, Lighthill's method of strained coordinates is used ...

Abstract: A simple ocean?atmosphere model suitable for long-term paleoclimate studies is presented. It consists of a three-basin zonally averaged ocean model coupled to an energy moisture-balance atmospheric model and a thermodynamic ...

Abstract: We examine the generation of trapped edge waves on a continental shelf when a long wave from the deep ocean reaches an irregular coast, and alterations in the propagation characteristics of trapped edge waves due to the ...

Abstract: We discuss the scattering of divergent Rossby waves by a semi-infinite vertical barrier of arbitrary orientation on a ? plane. The Wiener-Hopf method is used to obtain an integral representation of the scattered wave field ...

Abstract: In the northeast Pacific eddies are observed in the salinity and, to a lesser extent, in the thermal anomalies. In particular, a pronounced eddy is frequently observed a few hundred kilometers west of Sitka, Alaska, latitude ...

Abstract: A dynamic sea ice model based on granular material rheology is presented. The sea ice model is coupled to both a mixed layer ocean model and a one-layer thermodynamic atmospheric model, which allows for an ice albedo ...

Abstract: Surface wind data for the western region of the Indian Ocean was collated at the University of Miami, in support of certain FGGE/INDEX/MONEX projects, and published in two technical reports by Fernandez-Partagas and Düing ...

Abstract: We show that in the presence of a randomly perturbed stability frequency, a coherent internal wave (f<σ<N0) or gyroscopic wave (N0<σ<f) is always attenuated in the direction of energy propagation, where σ and f denote ...

Abstract: Hibler's dynamic-thermodynamic sea ice model with viscous-plastic rheology is used to simulate the seasonal cycle of sea ice motion, thickness, compactness, and growth rate in Hudson Bay under monthly climatological ...
