Dynamics of Rotating Shallow Gravity Currents Passing through a Channel. Part I: Observation of Transverse Structure

Oct 01, 2009; ... ABSTRACT A detailed dataset describing a quasi-stationary bottom gravity current, approximately 10 m thick and 10 km wide, passing through a channel-like constriction in the western Baltic Sea is presented. The data include full-depth, synoptic, and highly resolved transects of ...

Dynamics of Rotating Shallow Gravity Currents Passing through a Channel. Part II: Analysis

Oct 01, 2009; ... ABSTRACT The physics of frictional control for channelized rotating gravity currents are analyzed using an extensive dataset including hydrographic, current, and microstructure measurements from the western Baltic Sea. Rotational effects in these gravity currents, characterized by Ekman ...

Variability and Coherence of the Agulhas Undercurrent in a High-Resolution Ocean General Circulation Model

Oct 01, 2009; ... ABSTRACT The Agulhas Current system has been analyzed in a nested high-resolution ocean model and compared to observations. The model shows good performance in the western boundary current structure and the transports off the South African coast. This includes the simulation of the ...

A Time Series of Agulhas Undercurrent Transport

Oct 01, 2009; ... ABSTRACT A 550-day record of Agulhas Undercurrent transport between March 2003 and August 2004 is constructed from five deep moorings placed on the continental shelf off South Africa at nominally 32°S. The vertical and lateral scales of the undercurrent are estimated to be 2000 m and 40 ...

A Two-Scale Approximation for Efficient Representation of Nonlinear Energy Transfers in a Wind Wave Spectrum. Part II: Application to Observed Wave Spectra

Oct 01, 2009; ... ABSTRACT In Part I of this series, a new method for estimating nonlinear transfer rates in wind waves, based on a two-scale approximation (TSA) to the full Boltzmann integral (FBI) for quadruplet wave-wave interactions, was presented, and this new method was tested for idealized spectral ...
