  • Modeling studies of the coastal circulation off northern California

    Creator:
    Pullen, Julie D.
    Abstract:
    By implementing a series of mass-conserving nested high-resolution models down to approximately 1 km resolution that have realistic bathymetry, coastline, wind forcing and river run-off, the winter 1996-1997 shelf flow near Cape Mendocino, California, is simulated and compared with available observations from the Strata Formation on Margins (STRATAFORM) marine geology...

  • Numerical model investigations of wind-driven coastal circulation

    Creator:
    Cervantes, Brandy T.
    Abstract:
    The effects of wind forcing on coastal ocean circulation are studied using a numerical modeling approach. The first region of interest is on the North Carolina shelf, where the Coastal Ocean Processes (CoOP) Inner Shelf Study (ISS) took place during August - November 1994. ISS observations are used to initialize,...
