advect

Cole identified one trough, then gestured with his finger east of the trough in a counter-clockwise motion while commenting, "You have vorticity at the trough; that would be positive vorticity advection." He isolated wind speed data to determine advection: "You'd have your vorticity at the base, so it would advect with strong winds." He spent less time contemplating NVA and placed it west of the trough: "So NVA down here, in that general area."

Strong winds from the continental zone in August will advect in the warm air that is driving the warming of the surface layers, whereas strong winds from the north will bring cool air that in turn cools the epilimnion and, if the winds persist, will result in a mixing event.

After spawning, strong currents created by easterlies can advect eggs and larvae away from favorable conditions (Catalan et al., 2006).

This is bound to advect relatively cold and relatively drier maritime winds into the region.

Weak genetic structure among populations of marine species is a predicted outcome of large larval dispersal distances in biophysical modeling experiments, in which strong currents advect weakly swimming larvae across great distances (e.g., Bohonak 1999, Shanks et al.

From there, it only requires the typical anti-cyclonic circulation over southern Africa to advect the moisture south across Namibia.

In this region, fresh water input is substantial, tides are relatively weak, coastline geometry is complex, and Loop Current eddies at the shelf break have been observed to advect water far across the shelf.

For example, if the Bermuda High is positioned farther to the west than normal, light westerly winds advect dry continental air into the Southeast.

U(x, y, t) and V(x, y, t) are the current velocities in the x and y directions, respectively, that advect larvae.

Regardless of its evolution, the pelagic lifestyle exposes larval fishes to hydrodynamic transport processes that may advect them to new places.
