The dynamics of western boundary currents in the ocean will be considered in this work. This theoretical investigation will address the problem of recirculation by analyzing the transformation of properties such as potential vorticity as the current departs from the western margin of the ocean. In addition, the work will address the context of separation in the larger ocean energy balance.

这项工作将考虑海洋西边界流的动力学。 这项理论研究将通过分析当洋流离开海洋西缘时位涡等特性的变化来解决再循环问题。 此外，这项工作还将解决更大的海洋能量平衡中的分离背景。
