Using high-resolution winds derived from SAR, we have presented the detailed structure of wind in the strait. The general flow is generally close to geostrophic wind in the strait, inferring from the seal level pressure fields. Wind jets are induced by two channels and by th...
متن کاملComparative analysis between operational weather prediction models and QuikSCAT wind data near the Galician coast
Wind measurements from SeaWinds scatterometer on the NASA QuikSCAT satellite and wind forecasts from two different operational numerical models provided by MeteoGalicia were compared for a 4-year period (2002–2005) in Galician coast environment.

متن کاملDetermination of Compound and Overtide Constituents near the Eastern Iranian Coast of Makran
In this study, the compound and overtide constituents resulted from nonlinear triad interactions were evaluated using Bispectral method at the eastern Iranian coasts of Makran. It was found that the most significant compound constituents at the studies area were KO2, KP2, MS4 and MN4. Also, the overtides of M4 and S4 were detectable by means of implemented method. The superiority of Bispectral ...
