Cross-Shelf Exchange in Prograde Antarctic Troughs Driven by Offshore-Propagating Dense Water Eddies
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
The Dispersal of Dense Water Formed in an Idealized Coastal Polynya on a Shallow Sloping Shelf
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: his study examines the dispersal of dense water formed in an idealized coastal polynya on a sloping shelf in the absence of ambient circulation and stratification. Both numerical and laboratory experiments reveal two ...
Wind-Driven Circulation in a Shelf Valley. Part I: Mechanism of the Asymmetrical Response to Along-Shelf Winds in Opposite Directions
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractMotivated by observations in Hudson shelf valley showing stronger onshore than offshore flows, this study investigates wind-driven flows in idealized shallow shelf valleys. This first part of a two-part sequence ...
Intrinsic Nonlinearity and Spectral Structure of Internal Tides at an Idealized Mid-Atlantic Bight Shelf Break
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: o quantify dynamical aspects of internal-tide generation at the Mid-Atlantic Bight shelf break, this study employs an idealized ocean model initialized by climatological summertime stratification and forced by monochromatic ...
Length Scale of the Finite-Amplitude Meanders of Shelfbreak Fronts
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: hrough combining analytical arguments and numerical models, this study investigates the finite-amplitude meanders of shelfbreak fronts characterized by sloping isopycnals outcropping at both the surface and the shelfbreak ...
Wind-Driven Circulation in a Shelf Valley. Part II: Dynamics of the Along-Valley Velocity and Transport
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThe dynamics controlling the along-valley (cross shelf) flow in idealized shallow shelf valleys with small to moderate Burger number are investigated, and analytical scales of the along-valley flows are derived. ...
Tribological Behavior and Mechanism of a Self-Lubricating Coating With Alternating Soft and Hard Phases Prepared Horizontally Along the Substrate Surface
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Abstract. Typically, self-lubricating coatings cannot concurrently exhibit the advantages of both soft coatings and hard coatings. To address this challenge and enhance coating performance, a novel structural coating was ...
Modeling the Pathways and Mean Dynamics of River Plume Dispersal in the New York Bight
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This study investigates the dispersal of the Hudson River outflow across the New York Bight and the adjacent inner- through midshelf region. Regional Ocean Modeling System (ROMS) simulations were used to examine the mean ...
Simulation of Water Age and Residence Time in New York Bight
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The time scales on which river inflows disperse in the coastal ocean are relevant to a host of biogeochemical and environmental processes. These time scales are examined in a modeling study of the Hudson River plume on its ...
Modeling and Analysis of Internal-Tide Generation and Beamlike Onshore Propagation in the Vicinity of Shelfbreak Canyons
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: hydrostatic numerical model with alongshore-uniform barotropic M2 tidal boundary forcing and idealized shelfbreak canyon bathymetries is used to study internal-tide generation and onshore propagation. A control simulation ...
