Vertical structure of barotropic‐to‐baroclinic tidal energy conversion on a continental slope

Liu, Z., Zhang, W., & Helfrich, K., 2022. Vertical structure of barotropic‐to‐baroclinic tidal energy conversion on a continental slope. Journal of Geophysical Research – Oceans, 127(9). https://doi.org/10.1029/2022jc019130

Cross-shelf section of the energy conversion rate C (I – VI), averaged over the last six tidal periods; (I′ – VI’) depth-integrated energy conversion rate C showing its cross-shelf distribution; and (Iʺ – VIʺ) cross-shelf integrated C showing its vertical distribution. The blue and red lines in the top panels show the vertical density profiles in each case. Image provided by Zihua Liu.
