Cross-equatorial flow through an abyssal channel under the complete Coriolis force: Two-dimensional solutions by Stewart, A, Dellar, P

“…We investigate the role of this " non-traditional" component of the Coriolis force in cross-equatorial flow of abyssal ocean currents. We focus on the Antarctic Bottom Water (AABW), which crosses from the southern to the northern hemisphere through the Ceara abyssal plain in the western Atlantic ocean. …”
