Title: Consideration on the topographic control of a baroclinic ocean current
Abstract: The stability of ocean currents is considered using a two-layer model including the vertical shear in the geostrophic balance and bottom topography. Applying the results, the Kuroshio current along the bottom contour seems to be more stable than any other combination of the current direction and the bottom contour.
