The mean circulation of unstratified water bodies / by T.J. Simons.: En13-5/85-154E-PDF
"A critical evaluation is presented of the conventional view that long-term mean circulations of homogeneous basins may be identified with the quasi-steady response of linear models to atmospheric forcing. Based on climatological wind records for the Great Lakes region, it is shown that the mean circulation for unstratified seasons is dominated by rectified effects of nonlinear topographic wave interactions"--Abstract.
