Dynamics of the Cold-Water Event off the Southeast Coast of the United States in the Summer of 2003
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The cold-water event along the southeast coast of the United States in the summer of 2003 is studied using satellite data combined with in situ observations. The analysis suggests that the cooling is produced by wind-driven ...
Long-Wave Dynamics of Sea Level Variations during Indian Ocean Dipole Events
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Long-wave dynamics of the interannual variations of the equatorial Indian Ocean circulation are studied using an ocean general circulation model forced by the assimilated surface winds and heat flux of the European Centre ...
Nonlinear Dynamics of Two Western Boundary Currents Colliding at a Gap
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he nonlinear collision of two western boundary currents (WBCs) of equal transport at a gap of the western boundary is studied using a 1.5-layer reduced-gravity quasigeostrophic ocean model. It is found that, when the gap ...
Multiple Equilibria and Hysteresis of Two Unequal-Transport Western Boundary Currents Colliding at a Gap
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he nonlinear collision of two western boundary currents (WBCs) of Munk thickness LM colliding near a gap of width 2a is studied using a 1.5-layer, reduced-gravity, quasigeostrophic ocean model. The work is a continuation ...
Roles of Western and Eastern Boundary Reflections in the Interannual Sea Level Variations during Negative Indian Ocean Dipole Events
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The equatorial wave dynamics of sea level variations during negative Indian Ocean dipole (nIOD) events are investigated using the LICOM ocean general circulation model forced with the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather ...
A Numerical Study of Currents, Heat Advection, and Sea-Level Fluctuations in the Yellow Sea in Winter 1986
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A vertically integrated model that incorporates horizontal temperature variations is used to study the circulation of the Yellow Sea in a wintertime period for which velocity and temperature measurements are available at ...
Roles of Equatorial Waves and Western Boundary Reflection in the Seasonal Circulation of the Equatorial Indian Ocean
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: An ocean general circulation model (OGCM) is used to study the roles of equatorial waves and western boundary reflection in the seasonal circulation of the equatorial Indian Ocean. The western boundary reflection is defined ...
Hysteresis and Dynamics of a Western Boundary Current Flowing by a Gap Forced by Impingement of Mesoscale Eddies
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ysteresis of a western boundary current (WBC) flowing by a wide gap of a western boundary and the dynamics of the WBC variations associated with the impingement of mesoscale eddies from the eastern side of the gap are ...
Inverse Determination of Surface Heat Flux over the Yellow Sea in Winter 1986 from Sea Surface Temperature Data
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: An assimilation of routine sea surface temperature observations is conducted to estimate the sea surface heat flux in the Yellow Sea during the winter of 1986. Ten-day mean SST compilations, published by the Japan ...
