Fluid exchange across the equatorial front
摘要
Abstract
In this paper
the cusp-shaped wave pattern (Legeckis wave) along the Equatorial Front (EF) is modeled by a meandering jet
and the motion of fluid parcels in a two-dimensional kinematic model of the meandering jet along EF is studied using Melnikov’s method. Results indicated that the velocity field of the cusp-shaped wave pattern can indeed be modeled by a meandering jet; that the EF will act as a barrier to fluid exchange if there is no variability
but that it is just the variability that moves the buoy across the EF.
