Abstract: The ? effect is found to produce a poleward undercurrent in a wind-driven model of an eastern ocean circulation. The model is on an x, z plane and longshore derivatives of the velocity field are neglected. The nonlinear ...

Abstract: Linear and nonlinear two-layer ocean circulation models of coastal upwelling on an f-plane are driven by time-dependent winds and solved numerically. Longshore variations in the circulation are neglected and offshore ...

Abstract: An adiabatic, primitive equation, eddy-resolving circulation model has been applied to the Gulf Stream System from Cape Hatteras to east of the Grand Banks (30°?48°N, 78°?45°W). A two-layer version of the model was driven ...

Abstract: The dynamics of the eddy shedding by the Loop Current in the Gulf of Mexico have been investigated using three nonlinear numerical models: two-layer, barotropic and reduced gravity. The barotropic and reduced gravity models ...

Abstract: A primitive-equation, n-layer, eddy-resolving creation model has been applied to the Gulf Stream System from Cape Hatteras to cast of the Grand Banks (78°?45°W, 30°?48°N). Within the limitations of the model, realistic ...

Abstract: We have sought to simulate and understand consistently observed features of the Somali Current system during the southwest monsoon using a two-layer, nonlinear numerical ocean model driven from rest by a uniform south wind ...

Abstract: The large variability of the Gulf of Mexico wind field indicates that high-resolution wind data will be required to represent the weather systems affecting ocean circulation. This report presents methods and results of the ...
