The Stability of Small-Scale Structures
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Inversions of temperature and salinity are examined in terms of stability and sound velocity. Evidence relating stability to the sign of the temperature gradient in regions of pronounced temperature inversions is suggestive ...
Abyssal Penetration and Bottom Reflection of Internal Tidal Energy in the Bay of Biscay
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This paper describes field observations in the Bay of Biscay, and presents convincing evidence for the existence of a broad beam of internal tidal energy propagating downward from a source region on the upper continental ...
The Relationship Between Stability and Source Waters for a Section in the Northeast Atlantic
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The mean density structure in the Northeast Atlantic is described in terms of the stability frequency. Some dynamic considerations are given to account for the observed distribution and to indicate the importance of this ...
