The densest waters in the world ocean are
formed on the continental shelf areas around
Antarctica by ice formation and by the loss
of heat and water to the air. The Weddell Sea
(e.g., gordon, ...
The Relationship Between Stability and Source Waters for a Section in the Northeast Atlantic
Stability Source Waters Northeast Atlantic
2009/4/2
The mean density structure in the Northeast Atlantic is described in terms of the stability frequency. Some dynamic considerations are given to account for the observed distribution and to indicate th...
Effects of a Cold-Air Outbreak on Shelf Waters of the Gulf of Mexico
Cold-Air Gulf of Mexico Shelf Waters
2009/3/26
Two surveys of the waters over an area of the continental shelf in the northwestern Gulf of Mexico were made during January 1966. The first observation period was just before a major outbreak of cold,...
Hydrographic data were obtained within the Bransfield Strait and adjacent waters during February and March 1975 by R/V Conrad and R/V Melville as part of FDRAKE 75. Within the Strait the circumpolar D...
An Instability of Packets of Short Gravity Waves in Waters of Finite Depth
Short Gravity Waves Finite Depth
2009/2/13
We consider the stability of a solitary wave packet of short gravity waves propagating in waters of moderate depth. It is shown that such wave packets are unstable to long transverse disturbances. The...
Seasonal Variability in the Intermediate Waters of the Eastern North Atlantic
Seasonal Variability Eastern North Atlantic Intermediate Waters
2009/2/8
Observational evidence of seasonal variability below the main thermocline in the eastern North Atlantic is described, and a theoretical model of oceanic response to seasonally varying wind stress forc...
The Role of Local Heating in Producing Temperature Variations in the Offshore Waters of the Eastern Tropical Pacific
Local Heating Temperature Variations Offshore Waters Eastern Tropical Pacific
2009/2/5
The role of local heating in producing annual and interannual sea-surface temperature variations in the eastern tropical Pacific is studied. Removed from the eastern boundary (122°W), and off the equa...
The Response of Stratified, Frictional Flow of Shelf and Slope Waters to Fluctuating Large-Scale, Low-Frequency Wind Forcing
Frictional Flow Slope Waters Fluctuating Large-Scale Low-Frequency Wind Forcing
2009/1/15
Numerical and analytical models are developed to discuss large-scale, low-frequency, wind-driven fluctuations over the continental shelf and slope in the presence of realistic density stratification a...
A layer model that treats fronts as discontinuities is developed to study the steady state behavior of shallow estuary plumes on the continental shelf. The complete range of earth rotation effect is e...
The Interaction of Estuarine and Shelf Waters：A Model and Applications
Shelf Waters steady flow stratified flow
2009/1/7
An analytical model is developed to describe the steady flow in an estuary-shelf interaction region where the system is treated as a two layer density stratified flow. The motion is expanded in terms ...
The Response of Stratified Shelf and Slope Waters to Steady Offshore Forcing
Stratified Shelf Slope Waters Offshore Forcing
2009/1/5
The effect of steady, deep-ocean forcing on the flow over a continental slope and shelf region is examined using a linear and time-independent numerical model which includes continuous stratification,...
The rate of work against the buoyancy forces due to vertical mixing (W) has been determined from repeated measurements of vertical density profiles in a large number of fjordic sill basins (basins dam...
The Subtropical Mode Waters of the South Pacific Ocean
subtropical mode waters South Pacific Ocean
2008/12/23
The subtropical mode waters (STMW) of the southwestern Pacific Ocean are described, including their physical characteristics, spatial distribution, and temporal variability. STMW is a thermostad, or m...
Influence of an Offshore Shift in the Gulf Stream on Waters of the South Carolina Continental Shelf
bottom pressure Gulf Stream midrecord shifts South Carolina Continental Shelf
2008/12/23
A 4.3-month-long dataset from moorings on the continental shelf off South Carolina during 1986 showed unusual midrecord shifts in bottom pressure, temperature, stratification, and alongshelf currents....
Effect of Sea Ice on the Salinity of Antarctic Bottom Waters
Antarctic Bottom Waters Sea Ice
2008/12/12
Brine rejection during the formation of Antarctic sea ice is known to enhance the salinity of dense shelf waters in the Weddell and Ross Seas. As these shelf waters flow off the shelves and descend to...
