作者考虑了被一个弧形墙分隔的两个洋盆。墙内有一个缺口,最初由一个门堵住;向西可以吹过两层海洋,形成西部边界流和盆地之间的海平面差。然后移除概念门并计算所产生的非线性流。分析计算是基于一个简单的风驱动的大气环流模式和一个非线性的综合动量约束。构造了两类非线性解。一个对应于通过差距的水流源自内太平洋海盆的右手侧(向上看)的情况,另一个对应于水流源自左手侧的情况。有人建议,实际的印度尼西亚的水流量是由这两个类的流量,也就是说,通过流对应于通过两个相邻的间隙交换。计算表明,大约6 Sv(Sv <$106 m3 s−1)......
Abstract The author considers two oceanic basins separated by a meridional wall. The wall contains a gap that is initially blocked by a gate; westward winds are allowed to blow over the two-layered oceans creating western boundary currents and a sea level difference between the basins. The conceptual gate is then removed and the resulting nonlinear flow is computed. The analytical calculations are based on a simple wind-driven general circulation model and a nonlinear integrated momentum constraint. Two classes of nonlinear solutions are constructed. One corresponds to a situation where the flow through the gap originates from the right-hand side (looking upstream) of the inner Pacific basin and the other to a situation where the flow originates from the left-hand side. It is suggested that the actual Indonesian Throughflow is composed of both of these classes of flows; that is, the throughflow corresponds to an exchange via two adjacent gaps. Computations suggest that approximately 6 Sv (Sv ≡ 106 m3 s−1)...
