The Prediction,Verification,and Significance of Flank Jets at Mid-Ocean Ridges
Prediction Verification Significance Flank Jets Mid-Ocean Ridges
2015/7/14
One aspect of ocean flow over mid-ocean ridges that has escaped much attention is the capacity of a ridge to convert oscillatory flows into unidirectional flows. Those unidirectional flows take the fo...
Upwelling and Coastal Jets in a Continuously Stratified Ocean
Coastal Jets Continuously Stratified Ocean Upwelling
2009/4/2
A simple, linear, two-dimensional, f-plane model of coastal upwelling in a continuously stratified ocean is investigated. The transient response of the fluid to an impulsively applied alongshore wind ...
Coastal current observations taken at five locations in Lake Ontario during IFYGL, in periods of summer stratification, are presented and interpreted in terms of a linear dynamical model. Wind-stress ...
The relationship between coastal upwelling and coastal long-short currents is studied in a simple model of a continuously stratified fluid in a closed basin on the f-plane. It is shown that the coasta...
Nonlinearities weaken westward equatorial jets and cause them to be shallower and broader than their linear counterparts. Nonlinear eastward equatorial jets, on the other hand, are more intense, deepe...
Radiating Instabilities of Thin Baroclinic Jets
Radiating Instabilities Thin Baroclinic Jets
2009/2/6
The linear stability of thin, quasi-geostrophic, two-layer zonal jets on the β-plane is considered. The meridional structure of the jets is approximated in such a way as to allow an exact dispersion r...
Zonal Penetration Scale of Model Midlatitude Jets
Zonal Penetration Scale Model Midlatitude Jets
2009/1/16
All available observations indicate that the most energetic time-dependent currents are located in the vicinity of intense large-scale oceanic current systems. This characteristic is also a basic prop...
Low-level winds over land-ocean boundaries are generally alongshore. Two types of forcing that generate alongshore jets in the lower atmosphere are considered here, using as simple a model as possible...
Nonlinear Waves and Coherent Vortex Structures in Barotropic β-plane Jets
Nonlinear Waves Barotropic β-plane Jets Coherent Vortex Structures
2009/1/8
We examine the nonlinear evolution of barotropic β-plane jets on a periodic domain with a pseudospectral. A calculation of the linear growth rate yields an infected U-shaped curve on the β versus k0 p...
Dynamics of Deep Thermocline Jets in The POLYMODE Region
Deep Thermocline Jets POLYMODE Region
2009/1/8
We present the study of a series of very energetic events, which occur in the 360 days of the Polymode Synoptic Dynamics Experiment dataset. The method consists of the assimilation of data by a quasi-...
Currents, Water Masses, Eddies and Jets in the Mediterranean Levantine Basin
Atlantic Water Levantine Surface Water Levantine Intermediate Waters empirical orthogonal function
2009/1/6
Hydrographic measurements in the southeastern Levantine basin are analyzed, and the climatological water masses of the region and their seasonal variations are identified. We observe the formation of ...
Meander Evolution on Piecewise-Uniform, Quasi-geostrophic Jets
Meander Evolution Piecewise-Uniform Quasi-geostrophic Jets
2008/12/24
A variety of simple, two-layer representations of a quasi-geostrophic jet along a vorticity front are initialized with a simple meander. The subsequent evolution of the jet is followed and related to ...
Zonal Penetration Scale of Midlatitude Oceanic Jets
Zonal Penetration Scale Midlatitude Oceanic Jets Gulf Stream
2008/12/22
It is shown that subtle changes in the velocity profile across the seaward extension of midlatitude jets, such as the Gulf Stream, can lead to dramatic changes in the zonal-penetration scale. In parti...
The migration of nonlinear frontal jets is examined using an inviscid “reduced gravity” model. Two cases are considered in detail. The first involves the drift of deep jets situated above a sloping bo...
Generation of Mean Flows and Jets on a Beta Plane and over Topography
Mean Flows Jets Beta Plane
2008/12/18
This paper proposes and discusses mechanisms whereby mean flows and jets are produced by differential rotation and by topographic effects. It is shown that, in general, a mean gradient of potential vo...
