Cross-Shelf Transport Through the Interaction among a Coastal Jet, a Topographic Wave, and Tides

Shelf break flows are often characterized by along-isobath jets with cross-shelf currents associated with tides and waves guided by variable topography. Here, we address the question: Can a superposition of such flows produce significant aperiodic cross-shelf transport? To answer this question, we u...
