The Nature of the Poleward Heat Flux Due to Low-Frequency Current Fluctuations in Drake Passage
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Values of poleward heat flux due to low-frequency current fluctuations in Drake Passage are presented for 19 long-term current meter records obtained during 1975, 1976 and 1977. Most of the measurements (10) are in the ...
Observations of Antarctic Polar Front Motions in a Deep Water Expression
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: It is shown that perturbations in the position of the surface and subsurface expressions of the polar front in Drake Passage are also evident in a deep water frontal expression. This deep water expression has been seen in ...
A Suggestion for the Presentation of Correlations and Their Significance Levels
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: It is suggested that the results of correlation calculations between concurrent time series be presented in the form of normalized correlations, the normalization factor being the estimated large-lag standard error. This ...
Currents and Temperatures as Observed in Drake Passage During 1975
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Current and temperature records from 10 meters on six year-long moorings deployed during February 1975 in Drake Passage are examined and discussed in the context of hydrographic data from that area. The mean flow directions ...
