Abstract: A barotropic shallow-water model and continuation techniques are used to investigate steady solutions in an idealized South Indian Ocean basin containing Madagascar. The aim is to study the role of inertia in a possible ...

Abstract: he authors thank Nof et al. for their comments on the authors? paper ?On the steadiness of separating meandering currents.? The authors? paper was motivated by a series of papers by Nof et al. Under a certain set of ...

Abstract: he present-day global meridional overturning circulation (MOC) with formation of North Atlantic Deep Water (NADW) and the absence of a deep-water formation in the North Pacific is often considered to be caused by the fact ...

Abstract: The northern Agulhas Current off South Africa displays very steady flow characteristics. Roughly five to six times per year the flow is disrupted by the passage of large solitary meanders, propagating downstream. Observations ...
