On topographic and wind vorticity effects in bora driven circulation in the North Adriatic

Abstract
The effects of the bottom topography and input of the atmospheric vorticity to the sea for the NE (bora) wind driven circulation in the North Adriatic was studied from the numerical solutions of the vertically integrated Ekman’s equations. The numerical results for the vertically integrated current show that the effects of bottom topography and input of the atmospheric vorticity to the sea are of the same importance in the formation of the characteristic flow pattern and neither can be neglected.
