  1. Dynamics of Dipoles in the Middle Atlantic Bight

    Lipphardt, Bruce L., Jr.2019

    … Gulf Stream warm-core rings (WCR's) in the Middle Atlantic Bight (MAB) have been observed with one or more cyclones around their periphery. These ring systems are observed in the slope water between the Gulf Stream's western boundary and the shelf break. Observations of ring systems have …

  2. A climatology of the Middle Atlantic Bight shelfbreak front

    Linder, Christopher A.Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution1996

    Description of the shelfbreak front in the Middle Atlantic Bight is hampered by the extreme variability of the front. In order to gain more insight into the mean frontal structure and associated baroclinic jet, historical data is used to produce two dimensional climatological fields of temperature …

  4. Physical and biological processes at the Middle Atlantic Bight shelf-break front

    Hirzel, AndrewMassachusetts Institute of Technology and Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution2023

    The Middle Atlantic Bight (MAB) is a highly productive ecosystem, supporting several economically important commercial fisheries. Chlorophyll enhancement at the MAB shelf-break front has been observed only intermittently, despite numerous studies that suggest persistent upwelling at the front. High …
