(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2016)
Eddies in the ocean move westwards. Those shed by western boundary currents must then interact with continental shelf-slope topography at the western boundary. The presence of other eddies and mean flows complicates this ...
Mechanisms for enhanced turbulence in the Drake Passage Region of the Southern Ocean
