Tropical Atlantic geostrophic currents and ship drifts [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, 1987
Historical ship drifts and geostrophic surface currents obtained from hydrographic data are compared in the Tropical Atlantic ocean. The major components of the current system (North Equatorial Current, North Equatorial Countercurrent, South Equatorial Current) are clearly depicted by the two data sets. The main difference between the two fields is the

Mechanism Analysis of the Strong Coastal Current Zone and Abrupt Strong–Current Phenomena in Spring and Summer in the Yangjiang Sea Area of Western Guangdong in the Northwest of the South China Sea

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023
Residual current analysis of multiple stations’ periodic observational data for sea currents, and multiple voyages, multiple seasons from 2018 to 2022, revealed the existence of a strong southwest current zone, 20–30 m underwater and within the coastal ...

Development of High-Resolution Regional Climatology in the East/Japan Sea With a Primary Focus on Meridional Temperature Gradient Correction

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2021
In this study, we developed a new high-resolution regional climatology (0.1° by 0.1° by 19 levels) in the East/Japan Sea. National Centers for Environmental Information and Korea Oceanic Data Center already released the regional climatology of East Asian

Circulation Pathways and Exports of Arctic River Runoff Influenced by Atmospheric Circulation Regimes

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2021
River runoff supplies the Arctic Ocean with a large amount of freshwater and land-derived material, so it is important for both the physical and biogeochemical marine environment.

Regional mapping of energetic short mesoscale ocean dynamics from altimetry: performances from real observations [PDF]

open access: yesOcean Science, 2023
For over 25 years, satellite altimetry has provided invaluable information about the ocean dynamics at many scales. In particular, gridded sea surface height (SSH) maps allow us to estimate the mesoscale geostrophic circulation in the ocean.

Effect of the nodal declination tide on the thermohaline water structure, sea surface heights and geostrophic currents in the southwestern Bering Sea

open access: yesИзвестия ТИНРО, 2020
Satellite data on the sea level heights and data of Argo floats for the southwestern Bering Sea and adjacent area of the North Pacific are analyzed. Interannual variability of the thermohaline structure and water dynamics caused by the nodal (declination)

Geostrophic Transport in the Benguela Current Region [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Physical Oceanography, 1989
Historical data from the region between the Greenwich meridian and the African continental shelf are used to compute the offshore geostrophic transport of the Benguela Current. At 32°S, the Benguela Current is located near the African coast, transporting about 21 Sv (1 Sv = 106 m3 s−1) of surface water toward the north relative to a potential density ...
