The Hydraulics of an Evolving Upwelling Jet Flowing around a Cape

Creator:

Dale, Andrew C. and Barth, John A.

Abstract:

Upwelling jets flow alongshore in approximate geostrophic balance with the onshore pressure gradient induced by coastal upwelling. Observations of such jets have shown that they often move offshore downstream of capes, leaving a pool of upwelled water inshore. Comparisons are made between this behavior and the hydraulic transition of a...

The front on the Northern Flank of Georges Bank in spring : 2. Cross-frontal fluxes and mixing

Creator:

Ullman, David S., Dale, Andrew C., Hebert, Dave, and Barth, John A.

Abstract:

Hydrographic observations made with an undulating vehicle carrying a CTD and concurrent shipboard ADCP velocity observations over a 12‐day period are combined to investigate vertical mixing and cross‐frontal fluxes on the Northern Flank of Georges Bank. The CTD density time series is analyzed to detect the presence of vertical overturns,...
