Geophysics of deep convection and deep water formation in oceans / P.C. Chu.
Title: | Geophysics of deep convection and deep water formation in oceans / P.C. Chu. |
Author(s): | Chu, P. C. |
Date: | 1991. |
Publisher: | Amsterdam: Elsevier |
In: | Deep convection and deep water formation in the oceans. Proceedings of the International Monterey Colloquium on Deep Convection and Deep Water Formation in the Oceans. (1991.), |
Abstract: | After reviewing various physical mechanisms driving vertical circulation, discusses importance of symmetric instability of currents or of vortices in understanding deep convection processes. Makes special reference to Ross and Weddell seas. |
