Abstract: Convection in a homogeneous ocean is investigated by numerically integrating the three-dimensional Boussinesq equations in a tilted, rotating frame (?f?F plane) subject to a negative buoyancy flux (cooling) at the surface. ...

Abstract: This numerical experiment aims to investigate the dynamical effects of the vertical convection of waters, occurring in regions where the cooling of the upper ocean is due to periodical, local, rough winter atmospheric ...

Abstract: This paper investigates the tridimensional consistency of the resolution of eddy scales in simulating large-scale flows. The generation of classical wind-forced, eddy-driven double-gyre circulation is investigated with a ...

Abstract: The horizontal ocean circulation generated by vertical convection is investigated analytically. The stratification is parameterized by a two-layer ocean and attention is focused on the spinup phase when the phenomena can ...

Abstract: The subsurface variability of potential temperature and salinity south of Australia along 130°E is studied over a 25-yr period (1980?2004). The study is done with fields provided by a global eddy-permitting model of the ...

Abstract: o refine the understanding of how the Southern Ocean responds to recent intensification of the southern annular mode (SAM), a regional ocean model at two eddy-permitting resolutions was forced with two synthetic interannual ...
