Abstract: A simple method of computing the second-order, three-dimensional, tidally-induced residual current is presented. The depth-averaged residual current and the mean-surface gradient from the depth-averaged equations are first ...

Abstract: A simple method for computing first-order three-dimensional tidal currents is presented. The method involves solving separately the equations for the depth-averaged velocity and the vertical velocity gradiet. The interaction ...

Abstract: Using a depth-dependent tidal model, the tidally induced residual currents on the northern and southern sections of Georges Bank are computed and the effects of various physical parameters on the current are examined. ...

Abstract: A weakly nonlinear depth-dependent tidal model has been developed to study the effects of mean and tidal current interaction on the tidally induced residual current. The model is applied to the northern and southern sides ...

Abstract: Using a multiple regression technique that includes both tidal and wind forcings, the tidally-induced residual current can be estimated from current meter records. However, the estimated mean (long-term averaged) tidally ...
