Abstract: The authors investigate the behavior of buoyancy-driven coastal currents in a series of numerical experiments based on a two-layer frontal geostrophic model. The model focuses on baroclinic instability, allows for finite ...

Abstract: A theory is developed for the baroclinic destabilization of density-driven abyssal flows over topography in a rotating environment. The dominant instability mechanism being studied is the release of available potential ...

Abstract: he modifications to the data assimilation component of the Regional Deterministic Prediction System (RDPS) implemented at Environment Canada operations during the fall of 2014 are described. The main change is the replacement ...
