Ocean Interiors and Coastal Upwelling Models

Journal of Physical Oceanography, 1974
Abstract The constraints imposed upon a coastal upwelling zone by the steady-state wind-driven dynamics of the interior of an ocean basin are examined. A parameter is found which measures the strength of the bottom boundary layer in the interior. Oceanic conditions correspond to small values of this parameter and, thus, the bottom boundary layer is ...

A Numerical Model of Coastal Upwelling

Journal of Physical Oceanography, 1972
Abstract A wind-driven model of coastal upwelling induced into a stratified, rotating ocean is solved numerically. The circulation is on an f plane and longshore variations are neglected. A multilevel model is derived, but only solutions for a two-layer model are discussed. A longshore baroclinic surface jet is discovered.

Eastern Boundary Currents and Coastal Upwelling

Journal of Physical Oceanography, 1982
Abstract The adjustment of the eastern coastal zone of an inviscid ocean with vertical walls to a change in wind conditions occurs in two stages. After the propagation of a Kelvin wave across the forced region in a time Tk which is of the order of a day or two, the coastal upwelling zone is temporarily in equilibrium with the wind.

Note on Diffusion in Coastal Upwelling

Journal of Physical Oceanography, 1973
Abstract It is known from recent theoretical studies on coastal upwelling that in the linear model a finite depth of the upwelling regime can only be obtained when turbulent diffusion is included. In this note it is shown that, although a consistent solution is possible when only vertical diffusion is considered, the type of the solution depends ...

Seasonal Wind-Driven Coastal Upwelling Systems

2016
This chapter describes some significant seasonal wind-driven coastal upwelling systems, most of which are associated with Large Marine Ecosystems. Starting in the west Pacific Ocean with the productive ecosystems in the East and South China Seas, the scientific journey continues through the Indonesian Seas, where the Arafura Sea stands out as a highly ...

Coastal upwelling in the modern ocean

Geological Society, London, Special Publications, 1992
Abstract During the past decade several major physical oceanographical experiments were performed over the continental margins along the ocean’s eastern boundaries. The studies extended farther seaward than the continental shelf and extended over the seasons.

Double-celled circulation in coastal upwelling

Journal of Oceanography, 1977
Simple numerical experiments on two-dimensional coastal upwelling are made with emphasis on the role of non-geostrophic solenoidal field of density in the formation of double-celled circulation and multi-celled density front. Geometry of shelf and slope is not taken into account.
