Vortex Generation due to Coastal and Topographic Interactions

Abstract

For this grant, we performed two studies. In the first, the interaction of vortices with coastlines and broad topographic slopes was examined. In the second, the deviation of a coastal current due to an escarpment was investigated. The work included analytical, numerical and laboratory investigations.
