ABSTRACT

Garraffo and Kamenkovich 1996

Garraffo, Z.D., and V.M. Kamenkovich, 1996: A note on the transport of the Brazil Current. Geophys. Res. Lett., 23, 1629-1632, doi:10.1029/96GL01369.

Stommel's hypothesis on the influence of the thermohaline circulation on the transport of the Brazil Current is illustrated using the product of Semtner and Chervin's model. The velocity distribution along specifically chosen zonal sections is analyzed. A procedure of singling out the thermohaline component of the circulation is suggested and the significance is component is proved.
