Abstract

The theory of barotropic, shallow-sea ocean currents and storm surges considered from the viewpoint of air-sea interaction is presented. A 4-layer quasi-balanced dynamical model for a simulation of the structures of both the atmospheric and the marine planetary boundary layers is obtained by an analytical approach. A simplified scheme governing the storm surges induced by a slowly travelling circular atmospheric vortex is deduced.
