Numerical models of the general circulation in the Strait of Georgia

Numerical models have been used to study the low frequency (< 0.5 cycles per day) currents of the Strait of Georgia. In the central part of the Strait, the observed mean (i.e., time-averaged) residual circulation is characterized by cyclonic eddies in the velocity field of about eight kilomete...
