Surface currents in operational oceanography: Key applications, mechanisms, and methods [PDF]
This paper reviews physical mechanisms, observation techniques and modelling approaches dealing with surface currents on short time scales (hours to days) relevant for operational oceanography.

Dynamics of the Land–Sea Breeze System and the Surface Current Response in South-West Australia
The land–sea breeze (LSB) system, driven by the thermal contrast between the land and the adjacent ocean is a widely known atmospheric phenomenon, which occurs in coastal regions globally.

A numerical investigation of high-Reynolds-number constant-volume non-Boussinesq density currents in deep ambient [PDF]
The time-dependent behaviour of non-Boussinesq high-Reynolds-number density currents, released from a lock of height h0 and length x0 into a deep ambient and spreading over horizontal flat boundaries, is considered.

MAGNETIC ENERGY OF SURFACE CURRENTS ON A TORUS [PDF]
The magnetic energy and inductance of current distributions on the surface of a torus are considered. Specifically, we investigate the influence of the aspect ratio of the torus, and of the pitch angle for helical current densities, on the energy. We show that, for a fixed surface area of the torus, the energy experiences a minimum for a certain pitch ...

Eddy Detection in HF Radar-Derived Surface Currents in the Gulf of Naples
Submesoscale eddies play an important role in the energy transfer from the mesoscale down to the dissipative range, as well as in tracer transport. They carry inorganic matter, nutrients and biomass; in addition, they may act as pollutant conveyors ...

Subset currents on hyperbolic groups were introduced by Kapovich and Nagnibeda as a generalization of geodesic currents on hyperbolic groups, which were introduced by Bonahon and have been successfully studied in the case of the fundamental group

Patterns of deposition from experimental turbidity currents with reversing buoyancy [PDF]
Turbidity currents are turbulent, sediment-laden gravity currents which can be generated in relatively shallow shelf settings and travel downslope before spreading out across deep-water abyssal plains.

A numerical investigation of horizontal viscous gravity currents [PDF]
We study numerically the viscous phase of horizontal gravity currents of immiscible fluids in the lock-exchange configuration. A numerical technique capable of dealing with stiff density gradients is used, allowing us to mimic high-Schmidt-number ...

Forecast uncertainty and ensemble spread in surface currents from a regional ocean model
An operational ocean Ensemble Prediction System (EPS) for the coastal seas off Northern Norway is evaluated by comparing with high-frequency radar current speed estimates. The EPS is composed of 24 members for which the ocean current is not perturbed nor

ALGEBRA OF CHIRAL CURRENTS ON THE PHYSICAL SURFACE [PDF]
Using a particular structure for the Lagrangian action in a one-dimensional Thirring model and performing the Dirac's procedure, we are able to obtain the algebra for chiral currents which is entirely defined on the constraint surface in the corresponding Hamiltonian description of the theory.
