Abstract: Currents [O(0.1 m sec?1)] and sea-level variations [O(0.1 m)] on the continental shelf can be produced when atmospheric disturbances pass by. Since the atmospheric systems have length scales large compared with the width ...

Abstract: Calculations are made of the changes in the structure of an inertial current which can be induced by slow changes in the topography of the continental shelf and slope along which it flows. The particular case of a uniform ...

Abstract: Coastal sea level variations from six sites around South Africa are used to establish the characteristics of coastal-trapped wave (CTW) propagation. Substantial amplitudes (>50 cm) are found along the south coast, but ...
