Abstract: Twelve historical CTD/oxygen sections between the Grand Banks and Cape Hatteras, occupied over the time period 1981?85, are analyzed to investigate the variability of the Deep Western Boundary Current (DWBC) property core. ...

Abstract: An inverse ray tracing model is applied to observations of 40-day topographic Rossby waves on the continental slope off of Cape Hatteras, North Carolina, to determine their origin. The rays are traced seaward and extend ...

Abstract: The hydrographic properties of the bottom boundary layer (BBL) are investigated in a synoptic cross section of the Middle Atlantic Bight shelfbreak frontal jet. The dataset consists of closely spaced conductivity?temperature?depth ...

Abstract: ata from a closely spaced array of moorings situated across the Beaufort Sea shelfbreak at 152°W are used to study the Western Arctic Shelfbreak Current, with emphasis on its configuration during the summer season. Two ...

Abstract: The overturning and horizontal circulations of the Labrador Sea are deduced from a composite vertical section across the basin. The data come from the late-spring/early-summer occupations of the World Ocean Circulation ...

Abstract: Twelve years of historical hydrographic data, spanning the period 1990?2001, are analyzed to examine the along-stream evolution of the western North Atlantic Ocean shelfbreak front and current, following its path between ...

Abstract: The manner in which the deep western boundary current (DWBC) crosses the Gulf Stream is investigated using data from a hydrographic survey conducted in 1990. Absolute geostrophic velocity vectors are computed using in situ ...

Abstract: A geostrophic velocity section across the Gulf Stream and deep western boundary current near 35°N is referenced four different ways: using a POGO float (acoustically tracked transport float), shipboard acoustic Doppler ...
