Abstract: Conservation expressions for a fluid property ?i* (e.g., salt, heat) and mass are derived for a semi-enclosed, stratified region as functions of a concentration ?j (e.g., salinity, temperature) and time. A method is developed ...

Abstract: An analysis is presented of repeated density and current profiles and recording current meter (RCM) data collected off the northwest coast of Gotland Island (Baltic Sea) during the late summer and fall of 1977. Large, ...

Abstract: An analysis is presented of the fluctuations with periods exceeding approximately one day in the coastal zone of the eastern Skagerrak and in the fjord Gullmaren based primarily on data from a three-month field experiment ...

Abstract: Results are reported from the first long, recording current meter observations over the slope off Chile. These observations, at 30°S during the 1991?92 El Niño event, are analyzed together with observations of currents at ...

Abstract: Antarctic Intermediate Water is formed at the high midlatitudes of the Southern Ocean. In many ocean general circulation model simulations with coarse resolution and a z coordinate, a middepth salinity minimum characteristic ...

Abstract: his paper summarizes the results of an intercomparison project with Earth System Models of Intermediate Complexity (EMICs) undertaken in support of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Fifth Assessment ...
