Technical note: Two types of absolute dynamic ocean topography [PDF]

Ocean Science, 2018
Two types of marine geoid exist with the first type being the average level of sea surface height (SSH) if the water is at rest (classical definition), and the second type being satellite-determined with the condition that the water is usually not at ...

Aspects of the circulation in the Rockall Trough [PDF]

, 2001
An investigation is made of the circulation and structure of the water masses in the Rockall Trough in spring, combining the results of a recent synoptic survey (May 1998) with those from a high-resolution ocean circulation model.

Satellite Altimetry and Current-Meter Velocities in the Malvinas Current at 41°S: Comparisons and Modes of Variations [PDF]

, 2017
Three year long current-meter arrays were deployed in the Malvinas Current at 418S below a satellite altimeter track at about 10 years intervals. Surface geostrophic velocities (SGV) derived from satel- lite altimetric data are compared with the in situ ...

Coriolis force in Geophysics: an elementary introduction and examples [PDF]

, 2000
We show how Geophysics may illustrate and thus improve classical Mechanics lectures concerning the study of Coriolis force effects. We are then interested in atmospheric as well as oceanic phenomena we are familiar with, and are for that reason of ...

SEASONAL SURFACE GEOSTROPHIC CURRENT IN ARAFURA-TIMOR WATERS

Jurnal Ilmu dan Teknologi Kelautan Tropis, 2013
Research on the seasonal geostrophic surface current during 2002-2011 in Arafura-Timor waters was conducted using satellite altimetry data. Those data were absolute dynamic topography and absolute geostrophic velocity data taken from Archiving Validation and Interpretation of Satellite Oceanographic data (AVISO).

Fields of perturbation of pressure, density and speeds at a geostrophic state of atmosphere

Наука. Инновации. Технологии, 2022
Introduction: Fields of perturbation of pressure, density and speeds at a geostrophic state of atmosphere The general (global) atmospheric circulation (OCA) is understood as the totality of air currents (winds), which is the horizontal extent (scale ...

The present and future system for measuring the Atlantic meridional overturning circulation and heat transport [PDF]

, 2010
of the global combined atmosphere-ocean heat flux and so is important for the mean climate of the Atlantic sector of the Northern Hemisphere. This meridional heat flux is accomplished by both the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) and

Improved Surface Currents from Altimeter-Derived and Sea Surface Temperature Observations: Application to the North Atlantic Ocean

Remote Sensing
We present a study on the ocean surface currents reconstruction by merging Level-4 (L4, gap-free) altimeter-derived geostrophic currents and satellite sea surface temperature.

Geostrophic current patterns off the Egyptian Mediterranean coast [PDF]

OCEANOLOGIA, 2010
Using objectively analysed hydrographic data,currents have been calculated off the Egyptian Mediterraneancoast at the surface and at 30, 50, 75, 100, 200 and 300 mdepths for the four seasons.    The surface circulation is dominated by an anticyclonic circulationoff Salum Bay in winter, spring and summer.

Surface Vector Current Retrieval by Single-Station High-Frequency Surface Wave Radar Based on Ocean Dynamics in the Taiwan Strait

Remote Sensing
In order to address the issue of limited common coverage and high cost in mapping ocean surface vector current by two (or more) high-frequency surface wave radars, this paper proposes a single-station surface wave radar vector current inversion algorithm.
