Wind-Controlled Transport of Saltwater in the Southeastern Baltic Sea: A Model Study

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2022
We hypothesized that the saltwater transport in a system of the southeastern Baltic basins including the Gdańsk and Gotland deeps connected by the Hoburg Channel, is greatly controlled by wind forcing, which has a clear physical explanation.

A transatlantic section at 14.5N: Meridional volume and heat fluxes [PDF]

open access: yes, 1995
Two high-resolution hydrographic sections occupied during February, March 1989 in the western and eastern basins of the North Atlantic at 14.5N are combined to study the water mass structure and meridional mass and heat transports.

Upwelling di Laut Banda dan Pesisir Selatan Jawa serta Hubungannya dengan ENSO dan IOD

open access: yesOmni-Akuatika, 2017
Upwelling events analysis in southern coast of Java and Banda sea were conducted. The events were identified by using satellite data i.e. wind surface, Sea Surface Temperature (SST) and ocean color during period of 14 years (2002-2016) which calculated ...

A Bound on Ekman Pumping

open access: yesJournal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, 2020
Momentum transport by boundary layer turbulence causes a weak synoptic‐scale vertical motion. The classical textbook solution for the strength of this Ekman pumping depends on the curl of the surface momentum flux.

Major variations in subtropical North Atlantic heat transport at short (5 day) timescales and their causes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Variability in the North Atlantic ocean heat transport at 26.5°N on short (5-day) timescales is identified and contrasted with different behaviour at monthly intervals using a combination of RAPID/MOCHA/WBTS measurements and the NEMO-LIM2 1/12° ocean ...

New Insights about Upwelling Trends off the Portuguese Coast: An ERA5 Dataset Analysis

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022
In recent decades, several studies have highlighted the importance of the temporal and spatial structure of upwelling in defining the high levels of productivity of coastal upwelling systems. This work intends to assess the temporal and spatial trends of

Ekman Transport in Balanced Currents with Curvature

open access: yesJournal of Physical Oceanography, 2017
AbstractEkman transport, the horizontal mass transport associated with a wind stress applied on the ocean surface, is modified by the vorticity of ocean currents, leading to what has been termed the nonlinear Ekman transport. This article extends earlier work on this topic by deriving solutions for the nonlinear Ekman transport valid in currents with ...

Compensation between meridional flow components of the Atlantic MOC at 26° N [PDF]

open access: yesOcean Science, 2016
From ten years of observations of the Atlantic meridional overturning circulation (MOC) at 26° N (2004–2014), we revisit the question of flow compensation between components of the circulation.

Seasonal variability of meridional temperature fluxes in the eastern North Atlantic Ocean [PDF]

open access: yes, 1988
Seasonal meridional ocean temperature fluxes were computed in a regional study of the eastern North Atlantic Ocean east of 30°30′W between 12°30′N and 39°30′N for the upper 1500 m of the ocean. Historical oceanographic and meteorological measurements are
