โฆ Synopsis
Abstract
A depthโintegrated oceanโcurrent model is developed to simulate currents and sea surface elevations on the Australian continental shelf. the nonlinear advective terms are included and the equations of motion are solved using an efficient splitโexplicit finite difference scheme, which yields accurate and stable results. the model predictions are compared with observations over a fourโday period of both surface elevations and currents in Bass Strait during the passage of a typical cold front in April 1984.
