Abstract

The present paper describes a non-linear levels numerical model. The model is written in the semi-staggered grid with the forward-backwards numerical scheme. It is applied to reproduce the bora-driven circulation on the Adriatic shelf in order to relate to previous numerical studies where processes of advection of momentum and local generation of turbulence were not considered. Starting from a hydrostatic state the wind-stress produces a marked seiche and inertial oscillation in the numerical solutions. These oscillations are discussed with regard to the theory of the Adriatic seiche.
