Clarke A.J. auteur aut IRD text conferencePaper eng text/pdf reformatted digital access The western boundary of the tropical Pacific is not continuous and leakage of low frequency energy from the Pacific to the Indian Ocean is possible. At low frequencies equatorial Kelvin and Rossby waves have very large east-west scales compared with the east-west scale of the land masses in the region. Consequently, these land masses may be treated as islands that are infinitesimally thin in the east-west direction. By generalizing previous theory for a single island, the leakage of low frequency energy through the seven major "islands" forming the boundary of the western Pacific can be studied. specialized CIRCULATION OCEANIQUE ONDE ROSSBY MODELISATION ONDE KELVIN PACIFIQUE TROPICAL OUEST 032DYNEAU 020STAT01 Western Pacific International Meeting and Workshop on Toga Coare, Nouméa (NCL), 1989/05/24-30 423-434 Picaut Joël ed. edt IRD Lukas R. ed. edt IRD Delcroix Thierry ed. edt IRD Nouméa ORSTOM 1989 https://www.documentation.ird.fr/hor/fdi:30229 [F A30229] https://www.documentation.ird.fr/hor/fdi:30229 https://horizon.documentation.ird.fr/exl-doc/pleins_textes/doc34-08/30229.pdf IRD - Base Horizon / Pleins textes 1990-07-05 2017-07-07 fdi:30229 fre
