The adiabatic sea surface cooling in the Gulf of Trieste due to the «Bora» wind blowing: an analytical model

  • Published:
Il Nuovo Cimento C

Summary

A two-dimensional, analytical model is formulated to describe the adiabatic evolution of the nearshore sea temperature field, for shallow basins, in the presence of wind. The model is compared with experimental data of sea surface temperature, taken in the Gulf of Trieste, in the presence of «Bora» wind.

Riassunto

Viene formulato un modello analitico bidimensionale per l'evoluzione adiabatica del campo di temperatura del mare sottocosta, valido per bacini poco profondi, in presenza di vento. Il modello è confrontato con dati sperimentali di temperatura superficiale del mare, assunti nel Golfo di Trieste, in presenza di vento di bora.

Резюме

Формируется двумерная, аналитическая модель для описания адиабатической эволюции температурного поля поверхности моря для неглубоких бассейнов в присутствии ветра. Модель сравнивается с экспериментальными данными для температуры поверхности моря, полученными в заливе Триеста в присутствии ветра «Бора».
