A simple model for the near-surface currents in Robeson Channel / by R.K. Chow.: DR52-17/11-1975E-PDF

"A simple, qualitative model is proposed to explain some of the prominent features in the near-surface current observations in Robeson Channel reported previously. The current profile associated with Kelvin waves in a homogeneous body of water in a channel is extended to a layered channel with sharp discontinuity in density"--Abstract, page iii.
