We review what is known about the convective process in the open ocean, in which the
properties of large volumes of water are changed by intermittent, deep‐reaching convection …

In this paper we present an overview of the most recent findings about the Mediterranean
Sea present-day circulation structure. Both historical observations and numerical model …

Ocean models based on consistent hydrostatic, quasi‐hydrostatic, and nonhydrostatic
equation sets are formulated and discussed. The quasi‐hydrostatic and nonhydrostatic sets …

This chapter assesses the processes in the climate system that are believed to contribute the
most to the uncertainties in current projections of greenhouse warming. Many of these …

Observations of the last decade testify that the characteristics of the deep thermohaline
circulation in the Eastern Mediterranean Sea have changed thoroughly. The source of the …

Interactions between the Southern Ocean and the Weddell Sea ice shelves are important
both to the Antarctic Ice Sheet and to the production of globally significant water masses …

Turbulent Boussinesq convection under the influence of rapid rotation (ie with comparable
characteristic rotation and convection timescales) is studied. The transition to turbulence …
