River plumes are generated by the flow of buoyant river water into the coastal ocean, where
they significantly influence water properties and circulation. They comprise dynamically …

Ocean surface winds, currents, and waves play a crucial role in exchanges of momentum,
energy, heat, freshwater, gases, and other tracers between the ocean, atmosphere, and ice …

Unstructured-grid models grounded on semi-implicit, finite-volume, Eulerian–Lagrangian
algorithms, such as UnTRIM and ELCIRC, have enjoyed considerable success recently in …

Globally, rivers deliver significant quantities of nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) to the
coastal ocean each year. Currently, there are no viable estimates of how much of this N and …

Observational and modeling studies were conducted to investigate the Pearl River plume
and its interaction with the southwesterly driven upwelling circulation in the northern South …

Sediment flux from rivers to oceans is the fundamental driver of fluvio‐deltaic
morphodynamics and continental margin sedimentation, yet sediment transport across the …

Tide effects on the structure of the near‐field Changjiang River plume and on the extension
of the far‐field plume have often been neglected in analysis and numerical simulations …

Abstract The Kara and Laptev seas receive about one half of total freshwater runoff to the
Arctic Ocean from the Ob, Yenisei, and Lena rivers. Discharges of these large rivers form …

Climate change is especially strong in the region of the Arctic Ocean, and will have an
important impact on its thermo‐haline structure. We analyze the results of a hindcast …

This work is focused on the seasonal and interannual variability of the freshened surface
layer (FSL) in the Kara Sea during ice‐free periods. The majority of annual freshwater runoff …
