Anticyclonic Lenses in Large-Scale Strain and Shear
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A three-layer model is used to study the effects of pure strain flow and simple shearing flow on isolated, anticyclonic, baroclinic vortices such as Mediterranean salt lenses. Exact steady solutions are found representing ...
Dynamic Response of Single Electrode Conductivity Probes in Slow Flows
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Four designs of single electrode conductivity probes, three of them new, were tested for response characteristics in conditions simulating laboratory internal wave flows. Two of the new designs were shown to be significantly ...
Observations of Interaction between the Internal Wavefield and Low-Frequency Flows in the North Atlantic
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A total of four moorings from POLYMODE array I and II were analyzed in an investigation of the interaction of wavefields and mean flow. In particular, evidence for internal wave-mean flow interaction was sought by searching ...
The Effects on Finestructure Measurements of Correcting for Internal Wave Strain
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: It is shown that two methods used for eliminating the effects Of internal-wave straining on fine-scale salinity-temperature-depth profiles also eliminate finestructure in which Rp = α?zT/??zS is locally constant. It is ...
