Wave-induced deep equatorial ocean circulation

Thesis (Ph.D.)--University of Hawaii at Manoa, 2008. === For weak Yanai wave amplitude, currents resembling the TEJs are obtained, but only within the beam. They are the mean Eulerian flow, which cancels the Stokes drift of the Yanai waves, yielding a zero-mean Lagrangian flow: the water parcels con...
