Ekman currents caused by variable wind in models of upper ocean with depth and time dependent eddy viscosity
The work examines response of the upper ocean to time-varying winds. In the Ekman paradigm the effect of wind is considered as time-varying horizontally uniform tangential wind stress applied to the ocean surface and the turbulent diffusion of momentum is described employing the Boussinesq closure h...
