Abstract: The vertical displacement and slope of an isopycnal surface (by which is meant a density surface of constant σt) are described spatially. The data were acquired by towing pressure, temperature and conductivity sensors in ...

Abstract: Beginning in 1983, the dynamic height difference at the sea surface defining the countercurrent trough at 38°W was continuously observed by Inverted Echo Sounders at 3°N and 9°N for six years and ten months. The amplitude ...

Abstract: A study is presented of the settling of heavy particles in a turbulent medium and quantitatively applied to the lower atmosphere. The response time of settling particles to changes in the velocity of their surroundings is ...

Abstract: Spectra of two hundred days of data from five inverted echo sounders deployed along the equator in 1983?84 and a thousand days of 30 crossings of the equator by the TOPEX/POSEIDON altimeter in 1993?95 are both found to ...

Abstract: The study is based on observations from inverted echo sounders anchored near the equator in the western Atlantic Ocean. It appears to be a good method of detecting inertia-gravity waves with large vertical scale. The ...
