A Current-Induced Ekman Spiral in the St. Lawrence EstuarySource: Journal of Physical Oceanography:;1983:;Volume( 013 ):;issue: 008::page 1540Author:Trump, Clifford L.

Abstract: Current-meter measurements indicate the presence of a mean Ekman spiral imposed upon the dominant tidal oscillation of the St. Lawrence estuary. Estimates of vertical eddy coefficients are consistent with previous estimates. It is hypothesized that the spiral results from a steady, fresh, river-outflow layer flowing over the tidal prism.
