Abstract
⺠We perform a high resolution idealized isopycnal model changing the aspect ratio of a ridge/canyon. ⺠The control run is in an eddy-regime and the frequencies of the eddies coincide with Filchner overflow. ⺠Ridges are more effective than canyons in transporting the overflow to the deep ocean. ⺠Corrugation Burger number (Buc) can be used as a parameter to describe the flow over topography.
