Abstract: The properties of wind-driven equatorial currents in homogeneous oceans are investigated for variable wind stresses and variable eddy viscosities. In the case of a uniform westward stress, the calculated cross-stream and ...

Abstract: Measured currents at the steeply sloping north edge of Georges Bank show an unusually strong correlation between tidal and lower frequency components. The dominant current constituents are the rotary semidiurnal tides ...
