Abstract: A three-dimensional inertial model that conserves quasigeostrophic potential vorticity is proposed for wind-driven coastal upwelling along western boundaries. The dominant response to upwelling favorable winds is a ...

Abstract: he interannual variability of the upper-ocean circulation forced by seasonally varying monsoonal wind is investigated in a two-layer quasigeostrophic (QG) model, with the aim to understand the low-frequency variability of ...

Abstract: Shipboard observations of upper-ocean current, temperature–salinity, and turbulent dissipation rate were used to study near-inertial waves (NIWs) and turbulent diapycnal mixing in a cold-core eddy (CE) and warm-core eddy ...
