Circulation and Exchanges at High-latitude Ocean Margins: Dynamical models and Observations from Instrumented Seals
Zhou, Qin (Doctoral thesis; Doktorgradsavhandling, 2014-01-14)Circulation and exchange processes at high-latitude ocean margins are investigated in this thesis, by using analytical models, numerical simulations and hydrographic data. In the Northern Hemisphere, the establishment of Atlantic Water transport as a topographically steered slope current has been investigated. A simplified analytical model based on geostrophic balance predicts that buoyancy loss ...
