Equatorial Jet in the Indian Ocean: Theory | | James J O’brien
; H E Hurlburt
; | | Date: |
7 Jun 1974 | | Journal: | Science, 184 (4141), 1075-1077 | | Abstract: | A nonlinear numerical model and a simple analytical theory explain the basic features of the equatorial surface jet in the Indian Ocean recently reported by Wyrtki. The observed width of this transient current, 500 kilometers, is given theoretically by twice the baroclinic equatorial radius of deformation. The numerical model reproduces all Wyrtki’s observations of this natural phenomenon. | | Source: | PubMed, pmid17736191 doi: 10.1126/science.184.4141.1075 | | Services: | Forum | Review | Favorites | |
