Climatological evaporation seasonality in the northern Red Sea
[1] The dynamic and thermodynamic processes that underlie the exceptionally high evaporation over the northern Red Sea are examined. Through a combination of data analysis and a simple numerical model we show that the key boundary layer dehumidifier is ageostrophic cross-channel sea breezes. This circulation develops semidiurnally in response to thermal gradients across the Red Sea’s coasts bec...
متن کاملClimatological Coastal Jet Collision, Intermediate Water Formation, and the General Circulation of the Red Sea*
The authors present climatologies of a numerical model of the Red Sea, focusing on the dynamics of winter intermediate water formation. Northward flowing boundary currents are identified as the major dynamical elements. At the northern boundary, the eastern current follows the geometry, eventually turning back to the south. At ;268N and the western wall the two boundary currents collide. At the...
متن کاملThe Red Sea: Birth of an Ocean
Nowhere on the present-day Earth can the transition from a continental to an oceanic rift be observed and studied better than in the Red Sea region, where three rifts in different stages of evolution meet in a triple point located in the Afar region. A thermal and/or compositional mantle plume may have risen from the upper mantle below Afar already at *30 Ma, and may have triggered, at least in...
متن کامل23. Sedimentary History of the Red Sea
Numerous studies have been made of Recent Red Sea sediments concerning their paleontology, mineralogy, or geochemistry. In addition, over 50 reports have been published on the sedimentary environment of the hot brine area (21°N) in the central axial valley (see Degens and Ross, 1969, and contained references; Backer and Schoell, 1972). These studies generally indicate considerable climatic fluc...
