Excitation of Intraseasonal Variability in the Equatorial Atmosphere by Yanai Wave Groups via WISHE-Induced Convection
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A mechanism is presented, based on multiscale interactions via nonlinear wind-induced surface heat exchange (WISHE), that produces eastward-propagating, intraseasonal convective anomalies in the tropical atmosphere. ...
On the Role of Bottom Pressure Torques in Wind-Driven Gyres

Formation of Anticyclones above Topographic Depressions

Formation of Eastern Boundary Undercurrents via Mesoscale Eddy Rectification

Basin-Scale to Submesoscale Variability of the East Mediterranean Sea Upper Circulation

Why Does the Deep Western Boundary Current “Leak” around Flemish Cap?
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The southward-flowing deep limb of the Atlantic meridional overturning circulation is composed of both the deep western boundary current (DWBC) and interior pathways. The latter are fed by “leakiness” from the DWBC in the ...
Observations of Shoaling Density Current Regime Changes in Internal Wave Interactions
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: We present in situ and remote observations of a Mississippi plume front in the Louisiana Bight. The plume propagated freely across the bight, rather than as a coastal current. The observed cross-front circulation pattern ...
“Eddy” Saturation of the Antarctic Circumpolar Current by Standing Waves
