Journal ArticleDOI

Geostrophic Turbulence over a Slope

TL;DR: In this article, the authors examine freely evolving geostrophic turbulence, in two layers over a linearly sloping bottom, and find a collection of surface vortices and a bottom-intensified flow with zero surface potential vorticity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Alongshore currents and mesoscale variability near the shelf edge off northwestern Australia

TL;DR: In this article, the shelf break conditions and alongshore flow off northwestern Australia are studied during the strongly evaporative conditions of austral winter 2003, along with those of previous authors.
Book ChapterDOI

Zooplankton in the upwelling fronts off Pt. Conception, California

TL;DR: In this article, surface maps of selected taxa of zooplankton of Calanus pacificus were made off Pt. Conception, California, during three contrasting upwelling situations: moderate, strong and downwelling.
Journal ArticleDOI

Properties of flow and pressure over Georges Bank as observed with near‐surface drifters

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used drift data collected during the 1995-1999 Northwest Atlantic GLOBEC project to characterize flow patterns and residence time properties of Georges Bank, and found that during all seasons, there was a tendency for clockwise flow around the bank and this flow along with the residence time increased during the summer.
MonographDOI

Coastal Ocean Processes: A Science Prospectus

TL;DR: CoOP (Coastal Ocean Processes) as mentioned in this paper is an organization meant to study major interdisciplinary scientific problems in the coastal ocean, and its goal is to obtain a new level of quantitative understanding of the processes that dominate the transformations, transports and fates of biologically, chemically and geologically important matter on the continental margin.
