On the possibility of convective overturning in the Słupsk Furrow overflow of the Baltic Sea

Alosely spaced CTD transects across the Slupsk Furrow displayed a "downward-bending" of salinity contours below the salinity interface on the southern flank due to a transverse circulation in the saline water overflow. Numerical simulation of a gravity current in an idealized channel with...
