On the Pathways of Wind-Driven Coastal Upwelling: Nonlinear Momentum Flux and Baroclinic Instability
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Bottom Boundary Potential Vorticity Injection from an Oscillating Flow: A PV Pump
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ceanic boundary currents over the continental slope exhibit variability with a range of time scales. Numerical studies of steady, along-slope currents over a sloping bathymetry have shown that cross-slope Ekman transport ...
The Evolution and Arrest of a Turbulent Stratified Oceanic Bottom Boundary Layer over a Slope: Upslope Regime and PV Dynamics
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
The Evolution and Arrest of a Turbulent Stratified Oceanic Bottom Boundary Layer over a Slope: Downslope Regime

The Evolution and Arrest of a Turbulent Stratified Oceanic Bottom Boundary Layer over a Slope: Downslope Regime
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The dynamics of a stratified oceanic bottom boundary layer (BBL) over an insulating, sloping surface depend critically on the intersection of density surfaces with the bottom. For an imposed along-slope flow, the cross-slope ...
