(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1981)A two-layer, rigid-lid model of a Boussinesq, quasi-geostrophic ocean, based on the vertically-integrated equations of motion, is used on a (beta)-plane to study the processes involved as an initially-Gaussian cyclonic ...

(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1989)A three-dimensional time-dependent primitive equation model has been constructed to investigate the processes that control the circulation in East Lagoon, a narrow, shallow lagoon on Galveston Island, Texas. The primarily ...
