Moored observations of synoptic and seasonal variability in the East Greenland Coastal Current
We present a year-round assessment of the hydrographic variability within the East Greenland Coastal Current on the Greenland shelf from five synoptic crossings and 4 years of moored hydrographic data. From the five synoptic sections the current is observed as a robust, surface intensified flow with a total volume transport of 0.666 0.18 Sv and a freshwater transport of 426 12 mSv. The moorings...
متن کاملThe East Greenland Coastal Current: Structure, variability, and forcing
The subtidal circulation of the southeast Greenland shelf is described using a set of high-resolution hydrographic and velocity transects occupied in summer 2004. The main feature is the East Greenland Coastal Current (EGCC), a low-salinity, high-velocity jet with a wedge-shaped hydrographic structure characteristic of other surface buoyancy-driven currents. The EGCC was observed along the enti...

متن کاملSeasonal Variability of Phytoplankton Blooms in the Coastal Waters along the East Coast of India
Bay of Bengal (BOB) is a semi enclosed tropical basin located in the north eastern part of the Indian Ocean with high influence of fresh water discharge from major rivers and rainfall. Bay of Bengal (BOB) is highly influenced by monsoons and represents a natural laboratory to study the effect of fresh water fluxes on the marine ecosystem. Bay of Bengal (BOB) is very low in productivity often wi...
متن کاملLaboratory Experiments on the Interaction of a Buoyant Coastal Current with a Canyon: Application to the East Greenland Current
This paper presents a set of laboratory experiments focused on how a buoyant coastal current flowing over a sloping bottom interacts with a canyon and what controls the separation, if any, of the current from the upstream canyon bend. The results show that the separation of a buoyant coastal current depends on the current widthW relative to the radius of curvature of the bathymetry rc. The flow...
