Mass balance in shallow water simulation
Communications in Applied Numerical Methods, 1985AbstractMass balance relations are obtained for primitive and wave equation spectral models. The results prescribe a departure from conventional methods for boundary condition enforcement. Numerical results substantiate the theory.

Water mass exchange and diapycnal mixing at Bussol’ Strait revealed by water mass properties
Journal of Oceanography, 2007Intensive CTD observations that resolve the mean and tidal components were done with a total of 129 casts in summer of 2001 at Bussol’ Strait. Based on these data and all the available historical data, we have revealed the outflow from Bussol’ Strait to the Pacific and the significant diapycnal mixing in the strait. In the range 27.0−27.3σ

Refining of Water Masses at Sarawak Waters, Malaysia
Borneo Journal of Marine Science and Aquaculture (BJoMSA)Water mass identification is essential to understand the dynamics of water circulation. The waters off Sarawak are influenced by the northeast and the southwest monsoons. We studied the physical oceanography of the South China Sea along these waters, from data collected during the Prime Marine Scientific Expedition 2009. The expedition was organized by

Water Mass Archaeology: Tracing water masses to the surface
WP5 investigates how ice sheet meltwater discharge affects deep water formation, pole-to-pole connections, and large-scale ocean circulation, including the AMOC and ACC. It combines new ocean observations, innovative analyses, and modelling approaches to better understand how freshwater influences the global climate system.openaire +1 more source
Water masses in the Gulf of Aden
Journal of Oceanography, 2007Hydrographic data collected from Gulf of Aden since 1920 have been compiled to identify and refine the definitions of water masses in the Gulf of Aden (GA) and to describe their spatio-temporal variability. Four water masses have been identified based on their θ-S characteristics.

Water masses and faunal movements
Proceedings of the Royal Society of London. Series B. Biological Sciences, 1960Abstract H. Brattström (Zoology Department, University of Bergen) I should like to underline what Professor Dahl and Professor Knox have said: that there seems not to exist, in western South America, a marked border between a cold and a warm temperate zone.

Water Security and Mass Migration
2020Abstract The world faces an unprecedented human migration crisis, as hundreds of thousands flee famine, poverty, and violence in many parts of the globe. While the movement of these people from one country to another can appear, on the surface, as a response to current events, these migrations can perhaps be best understood with an ...

Lateral mixing of water masses
Deep Sea Research and Oceanographic Abstracts, 1967Abstract The vertical transport of heat and salt in the “salt-finger” convective regime can be enhanced by the vertical shear of a “medium” scale motion. A weak shear converts compensating temperature-salinity variations on isopycnal surfaces into strong vertical T-S gradients.

Interocean exchange of water masses
Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, 1995A new method for calculating water mass transport between different ocean basins from the velocity fields obtained by numerical models is presented. The method is applied to the velocity field of the Southern Ocean simulated by a primitive equation model (fine resolution Antarctic model).

Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society of London. Series A, Mathematical and Physical Sciences, 1953
Abstract It was shown by Stokes that in a water wave the particles of fluid possess, apart from their orbital motion, a steady second-order drift velocity (usually called the mass-transport velocity). Recent experiments, however, have indicated that the mass-transport velocity can be very different from that predicted by Stokes on the
