Abstract
Boundary-layer type solutions are obtained for currents generated in a homogeneous fluid in a long rotating channel by a steady wind stress acting along or across the channel. Included are viscous wall boundary layers which arise necessarily from secondary circulations transverse to the axis of the channel, and from no slip conditions at the wall.
