Ocean circulationAbstract
The success of this summer's Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Program owes much to
Myrl Hendershott's excellent and engaging survey of the Oceans General Circulation,
including recent developments In the Theory of Recirculation Gyres and Thermocline
Ventilation.

On the world ocean circulation. Volume I, some global features/North Atlantic circulation
(Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, 1996-06)This is the first volume of a "final report" that summarizes, often in a speculative vein, what I have learned over the past 35 years or so about large-scale, low-frequency ocean currents, primarily with support from the ... -
Investigating the eddy diffusivity concept in the coastal ocean
(American Meteorological Society, 2016-06-29)This paper aims to test the validity, utility, and limitations of the lateral eddy diffusivity concept in a coastal environment through analyzing data from coupled drifter and dye releases within the footprint of a ... -
Mixing variability in the Southern Ocean
(American Meteorological Society, 2015-04)A key remaining challenge in oceanography is the understanding and parameterization of small-scale mixing. Evidence suggests that topographic features play a significant role in enhancing mixing in the Southern Ocean. This ...
