A two-layer model for the separation of inertial boundary currents

Abstract

1. Introduction The problem of the steady circulation in an inviscid, two-layer ocean is solved in the limit of small mid-oceanic Ross by number. The model is not new. Certain aspects of the problem have been treated by Fofonoff (1954 and 1962), Deacon et al (1955), Charney (1955), Morgan (1956), Stammel (1958), Robinson (1963), Blandford (1965), J acobs (1968), and Schmitz (1969)
