Cross shelf-break exchange is limited by the tendency of geostrophic flow to follow
bathymetric contours, not cross them. However, small scale topography, such as canyons …

We present the results of three‐dimensional, nonhydrostatic simulations of internal tides and
waves in the South China Sea (SCS) using the SUNTANS model. Model results accurately …

A detailed energy analysis of the barotropic and baroclinic M 2 tides in the Monterey Bay
area is performed. The authors first derive a theoretical framework for analyzing internal tide …

Turbulent mixing driven by breaking internal tides plays a primary role in the meridional
overturning and oceanic heat budget. Most current climate models explicitly parameterize …

Macrocystis pyrifera (Giant Kelp) forests form important habitats in temperate coastal
regions. Hydrodynamics control the transport of nutrients, food particles, larvae and spores …

This paper describes a nonlinear, three‐dimensional spectral collocation method for the
simulation of the incompressible Navier–Stokes equations under the Boussinesq …

An Empirical Model for Estimating the Geographic Location of Nonlinear Internal Solitary
Waves in: Journal of Atmospheric and Oceanic Technology Volume 26 Issue 10 (2009) …

Turbulent overturning on scales greater than 10 m is observed near the bottom and in mid-
depth layers within the Gaoping (formerly spelled Kaoping) Submarine Canyon (KPSC) in …

The increasing demand for the investigation of nonhydrostatic effects in ocean modelling
requires crucial modifications to models applying the hydrostatic pressure assumption …
