  • A modified galerkin-spectral model for three-dimensional, barotropic, wind-driven shelf circulation 

    Sheng, Jinyu, and K. R. Thompson. 1993. "A modified galerkin-spectral model for three-dimensional, barotropic, wind-driven shelf circulation." Journal of Geophysical Research.C.Oceans 98(C4): 7011-7022. DOI:10.1029/92JC02963
    The authors describe an efficient numerical scheme for calculating wind-driven currents on the continental shelf. Our scheme is based on the spectral approach introduced by Heaps and subsequently modified by Lardner. The ...

  • Subtidal circulation on the Scotian Shelf: assessing the hindcast skill of a linear, barotropic model 

    Thompson, K. R., and Jinyu Sheng. 1997. "Subtidal circulation on the Scotian Shelf: assessing the hindcast skill of a linear, barotropic model." Journal of Geophysical Research 102: 24987-5003. DOI: 10.1029/97JC00368
    Currents measured during the winter of 1985-1986 by four moorings on the inner Scotian Shelf are used to assess the hindcast skill of a three-dimensional circulation model forced by local wind stress and coastal sea level. ...
