Journal ArticleDOI
The Middle Atlantic Bight Cold Pool: Evolution of the Temperature Structure During Summer 1979
Robert W. Houghton,Ronald Schlitz,Robert C. Beardsley,Bradford Butman,J. Lockwood Chamberlin +4 more
TL;DR: In this paper, temperature data spanning the entire Middle Atlantic Bight (MAB) during 1979 are used to study the structure and evolution of the cold pool, and both temperature data and direct current measurements suggest that the mean alongshore current has a minimum between Nantucket Shoals and Hudson Canyon.
Journal ArticleDOI
Long-term observations of bottom current and bottom sediment movement on the mid-Atlantic continental shelf
TL;DR: In this article, in situ observations made at three locations on the mid-Atlantic continental shelf during 1975--1976 clearly show intermitten movement of bottom sediment caused by currents, waves, and other forcing mechanisms.
Journal ArticleDOI
Modeling tidal exchange and dispersion in Boston Harbor
TL;DR: Tidal dispersion and the horizontal exchange of water between Boston Harbor and the surrounding ocean are examined with a high-resolution (200 m) depth-averaged numerical model in this article.
ReportDOI
Atlas of tidal elevation and current observations on the Northeast American continental shelf and slope
Journal ArticleDOI
Sediment-transport events on the northern California continental shelf during the 1990–1991 STRESS experiment
Christopher R. Sherwood,Christopher R. Sherwood,Bradford Butman,David A. Cacchione,David E. Drake,Thomas F. Gross,Richard W. Sternberg,Patricia L. Wiberg,Albert J. Williams +8 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that local storms with southerly winds may dominate seasonal transport, as on the Washington shelf, but significant transport also can occur during fair weather and during periods of northerly winds as discussed by the authors.
