On the Influence of Constant Vertical Wind Speed on the Classical Ekman Spiral

The Ekman spiral is described by a coupled system of differential equations originally discussed by Walfrid Ekman (Ekman, 1905). This system is a simplified version of the Navier­Stokes equations. The differential equations, as discussed in Ekman’s paper, concern the currents of the ocean. However, it is also possible to interpret these...
