A reduced version of the numerical grid used in the explanation of the boundary conditions. kept at rest in this test. It should be noted that in the inertial model H can vary along the western solid boundary, but is a constant in the frictional case. Viscous spreading of the boundary current at lower latitudes is evident in Fig. 12. This feature is character- istic of inertial-friction models [as noted first by Munk (1950)] in which the effect of friction is to retard the formation of the boundary current. Also, the inertial- frictional boundary current is less intense and has a more easterly core location than the purely inertial Fig. 12. Steady-state results from the present inertial-frictional model (solid lines) after a 1200 h numerical integration and the rictionless-inertial model of Say lor (dashed lines). 600r 450- — 500 —.
