Modeling studies of the effects of seasonal wind forcing and thermohaline gradients on the Leeuwin Current System

A high resolution, multi-level, primitive equation ocean model is used to investigate the effects of seasonal thermohaline gradients and wind forcing in the generation of currents and eddies off the western and southwestern coasts of Australia. Additionally, an investigation of the generation mechan...
