An implicit formula for boundary current separation

Boundary layer separation occurs in classical fluids when the boundary layer is decelerated by an adverse pressure gradient. Here a "separation formula" is derived for downstream variations in the velocity, or pressure, of an ocean boundary current. The formula is implicit in the sense tha...
