Download or read book Geophysics of Deep Convection and Deep Water Formation in Oceans written by and published by . This book was released on 1987 with total page 15 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An important task for geophysicals studying deep convection and deep water formation in the ocean is to investigate various physical mechanisms generating vertical circulation. Two major types of such mechanisms are available so far, namely thermodynamical instability, which generates convection and mixing due largely to surface buoyancy flux brought by not bring release or surface cooling, and dynamical instabilities, which also produce various vertical cells exchanging water masses at different depths.
