Stable Jet Modes:A Special Case of Eddy and Mean Flow Interaction
Stable Jet Modes Eddy Mean Flow Interaction
2009/2/23
The quasi-geostrophic, small-amplitude free modes of oscillation are examined for a midlatitude ocean basin with mean currents. Attention is restricted to a particular class of mean currents which are...
A Theory of the Mean Flow Driven by Long Internal Waves in a Rotating Basin, with Application to Lake Kinneret
Mean Flow Driven Rotating Basin Long Internal Waves
2009/2/13
The rectified flow induced by wind-driven internal seiches in a rotating lake is studied. Friction and nonlinearity combine to generate a secondary mean flow which is calculated analytically for the c...

Deep Western Boundary Current Mean Flow
2009/1/21
The Deep Western Boundary Current (DWBC or Western Boundary Undercurrent) was observed for over 100 days by an L-shaped array of current meters along and across the Blake Escarpment. The measurements ...
On the Continuity of Mean Flow between the Scotian Shelf and the Middle Atlantic Bight
shelf mean flow Scotian Shelf Middle Atlantic Bight
2009/1/12
Oxygen-isotope tracer data combined with results from two linear barotropic coastal models are used to argue that the observed equatorward mean alongshelf flow in the Middle Atlantic Bight is a downst...
