Exchange Processes Near Wide Arctic Canyons and Modeling Exchange Processes Near Wide Arctic Canyons
Understanding across-shelf exchange and shelf dynamics due to wind and buoyancy forcing. The main objective of this project is to describe and physically explain the dominant processes active within the wide Canadian Mackenzie Canyon prior to the onset of winter freezing. More specifically, the proj...
