Low level wind and coastal Terra Nova Bay polynya:A study by Eta model simulations.

The study focuses on a real event of katabatic wind and polynya at Terra Nova Bay (TNB). The katabatic winds and the impact of an open polynya on their intensity are simulated by a numerical atmospheric model. The event was selected as satellite images of September 2003 displaying a fluctuating TNB...
