Wind-Driven Ocean Currents and Ekman Transport

Science, 1987
Oceanographers have long sought to verify the theoretical Ekman transport relation, which predicts that a steady wind stress acting together with the Coriolis force will produce a transport of water to the right of the wind. In situ measurements of wind and ocean currents provide a detailed view of this phenomenon. By separating the wind-driven current

Role of Ekman transport versus Ekman pumping in driving summer upwelling in the South China Sea

Journal of Ocean University of China, 2013
Relative roles of Ekman transport and Ekman pumping in driving summer upwelling in the South China Sea (SCS) are examined using QuikSCAT scatterometer wind data. The major upwelling regions in the SCS are the coastal regions east and southeast of Vietnam (UESEV), east and southeast of Hainan Island (UESEH), and southeast of Guangdong province (USEG ...

Anthropogenic carbon dioxide transport in the Southern Ocean driven by Ekman flow

Nature, 2010
The Southern Ocean, with its large surface area and vigorous overturning circulation, is potentially a substantial sink of anthropogenic CO(2) (refs 1-4). Despite its importance, the mechanism and pathways of anthropogenic CO(2) uptake and transport are poorly understood.

Ekman transport along the Galician Coast (NW, Spain) calculated from QuikSCAT winds

Journal of Marine Systems, 2008
Abstract Ekman transport is studied close to the Galician coast by means of wind data provided by the QuikSCAT satellite from November 1999 to October 2005. Three different coastal zones are identified, western coast from Mino River to Cape Finisterre, middle coast from Cape Finisterre to Cape Ortegal and northern coast, from Cape Ortegal to Cape ...

Ekman transport along the Galician coast (northwest Spain) calculated from forecasted winds

Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, 2006
Ekman transport is studied close to the Galician coast by means of forecasted winds provided by METEOGALICIA from November 2001 to October 2004. Three different coastal zones are identified: western coast from Miño River to Cape Finisterre, middle coast from Cape Finisterre to Cape Ortegal and northern coast, from Cape Ortegal to Cape Peñas.

The effect of Stokes drift on Ekman transport in the open sea

Acta Oceanologica Sinica, 2012
By introducing the wave-induced Coriolis-Stokes forcing into ageostrophic motion equation, the Eulerian transport is modified by the wave-induced Stokes drift. The long-term mean contributions of the Stokes transport with remotely generated swells being included to the ageostrophic transport are analyzed using the ECMWF (European Centre for Medium ...
