The Transformation of Salinity Variance: A New Approach to Quantifying the Influence of Straining and Mixing on Estuarine Stratification
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThe roles of straining and dissipation in controlling stratification are derived analytically using a vertical salinity variance method. Stratification is produced by converting horizontal variance to vertical ...

Abstract: easuring the transport of the Changjiang (also known as the Yangtze) River?derived buoyant coastal current, that is, the Min?Zhe Coastal Current, is of great importance for understanding the fate of terrestrial materials ...
Prognostic Modeling Studies of the Keweenaw Current in Lake Superior. Part I: Formation and Evolution
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The formation and evolution of the Keweenaw Current in Lake Superior were examined using a nonorthogonal-coordinate primitive equation numerical model. The model was initialized by the monthly averaged temperaturefield ...
