Easter Rising

The residual water levels at NH, NL, and Np, the residual currents (the sum of the mean and fluctuating components), and the square of the E-W and N-S components of the wind speed measured at Stratford (assumed proportional to the components of the wind stress on the water surface, ay) are shown for the period of the storm in Fig. 4. The water levels at NH, NL, and Np rise while the wind has a strong easterly component the subsequent fall in level begins when a reverses. The times of the maximum and zero Alt for these three water level stations are nearly... [Pg.48]

Air circulates within the troposphere from the equator toward the two poles. In simple terms, the hot air at the equator rises and moves toward the poles when it encounters cold temperatures at the poles, it becomes more dense and sinks, then circulates back toward the equator. In fact, this occurs in a series of convection cells that run from the equator to each pole as shown in Figure 2.3 (adapted from [58]). The Hadley cells are locateid at the equator. Air circulates in the Hadley cells toward each of the poles, to a latitude of approximately 30° N/S. North and south of the Hadley cells lie the Ferrel cells. Air circulates between approximately 30° and 60° in the Ferrel cells. Near the surface of the earth, the air flows toward the pole and eastward high in the troposphere the air circulates back toward the equator and toward the west. Beyond the Ferrel cells are the Polar cells. Air circulates within these cells between approximately 60° N and the North Pole, blowing in an easterly direction, or between 60° S and the South Pole [59]. [Pg.20]
