Abstract: A primitive equation ocean model is applied to the process study of the Gaspé Current and cyclonic circulation over the northwestern Gulf of St. Lawrence (NWG). The model is driven by river discharge and barotropic boundary ...

Abstract: A three-dimensional ocean circulation model is used to study circulation and month-to-month variability in the western Caribbean Sea. The domain covers the area between 72° and 90°W and between 8° and 24°N, with a horizontal ...

Abstract: AbstractThis study examines the tidal modulation of surface gravity waves in the Gulf of Maine (GoM) by using in situ observations and numerical model results. Analysis of observational data demonstrates significant ...

Abstract: he smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) technique is a mesh-free numerical method that has great potential to be used in the development of the next generation of numerical ocean models. The implementation of open and ...

Abstract: On the spherical earth, and in the absence of a background flow, the poleward propagation of near-inertial oscillations is restricted by the turning latitude. A background flow, on the other hand, provides a way to increase ...

Abstract: An extreme weather event (Hurricane Juan) made landfall in Nova Scotia, Canada, in September 2003. The storm produced an ?70-cm storm surge and ?40 cm s?1 coastal currents in Lunenburg Bay, registered by a coastal observing ...

Abstract: Near-inertial oscillations (NIOs) on the inner Scotian shelf are studied using observations, a simple slab model, and two operational shelf circulation models. High-frequency radar and ADCP observations from December 2015 ...

Abstract: The development and verification of a new version of the DieCAST ocean circulation model to be referred to as CANDIE (Canadian Diecast) are considered. Both CANDIE and DieCAST have many features in common with the well-known ...
