abstract = "On the southeastern continental shelf of Brazil the wintertime
subtidal variability of the circulation is highly dominated by the
passage of cold fronts. Hydrographic data for the region reveal
that during this (July, August, September)season only a weak
vertical stratification is observed. In this paper the response of
the region to cold fronts is studied by using a barotropic finite
element model, forced by a conceptual cold front wind field
derived from the analysis of coastal winds and satellite
imagery.",
