Abstract: Instability processes in frontal jet regions outside the western boundary currents are examined for their ability to produce mesoscale variability comparable to that observed in the open ocean. The important of sufficient ...

Abstract: The Antarctic circumpolar wave is now a well-known feature that can be detected in atmospheric, oceanic mixed layer, and sea-ice data. In this coupled ice?ocean model driven by 40 yr of daily atmospheric forcing data, it ...

Abstract: A sigma coordinate ocean circulation model is employed to study flow trapped to a tall seamount in a periodic f-plane channel. In Part I, errors arising from the pressure gradient formulation in the steep topography/strong ...

Abstract: Global mean and eddy fields from a four-year experiment with a 1/6° ? 1/5° horizontal resolution implementation of the CME North Atlantic model are presented. The time-averaged wind-driven and thermohaline circulation in ...

Abstract: A sigma-coordinate, primitive equation ocean circulation model is used to explore the problem of the remnant generation of trapped waves about a tall, circular, isolated seamount by an incident oscillatory barotropic ...
