该项目的目标是增进对底部边界层的动态如何影响包含搁置锋面的大陆边缘的沿海环流的了解。之所以选择在大西洋中部海湾收集的数据进行这项研究,是因为该地区的搁置前沿是一个强大而持久的特征。该项目的主要科学目标是:评估底边界层厚度,对破架锋面附近的环流进行分析,并研究坡面上的底流。此外,对坡面底流的研究将检验Lentz和Trowbridge(1991)和Gawkiewicz和Chapman(1992)模型中的一些科学假设,这些假设确定边界层厚度与层结、沿岸流动和底部地形陡度的关系。
英文摘要
The goal of this project is to increase the understanding of how the dynamics of the bottom boundary layer affect coastal circulation on continental margins containing a shelfbreak front. Data collected in the Mid-Atlantic Bight were chosen for this study because the shelfbreak front in that region is a robust and persistent feature. The major scientific goals of this project are: evaluate the bottom boundary layer thickness, conduct an analysis of the circulation near the shelfbreak front, and study the bottom flow on the slope. In addition, the study of the bottom flow on the slope will test some scientific hypothesis derived from the models of Lentz and Trowbridge (1991) and Gawarkiewicz and Chapman (1992) which identify the dependence of the boundary layer thickness on the stratification, alongshore flow, and steepness of bottom topography.
