RISOn the Dynamics of the Slope Current System along the West European Margin. Part I: Analytical Calculations and Numerical Simulations with Steady-State Forcing
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The dynamics of the baroclinic slope current system along the western European margin in the Bay of Biscay and along the northern Iberian Peninsula are investigated in two different models, one analytical and one numerical. ...
Sources of the Equatorial Undercurrent in the Atlantic in a High-Resolution Ocean Model
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The ventilation of the Equatorial Undercurrent (EUC) in the Atlantic is investigated using data from a high-resolution ocean model. Overturning streamfunctions, subduction patterns, and pathways are determined from Eulerian ...
On the Dynamics of the Slope Current System along the West European Margin. Part II: Analytical Calculations and Numerical Simulations with Seasonal Forcing
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The seasonality of the baroclinic slope current system along the western European margin in the Bay of Biscay and along the northern Iberian Peninsula is investigated in a joint analysis of an analytical model and numerical ...
Water Mass Export from Drake Passage to the Atlantic, Indian, and Pacific Oceans: A Lagrangian Model Analysis
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The northward export of intermediate water from Drake Passage is investigated in two global ocean general circulation models (GCMs) by means of quantitative particle tracing diagnostics. This study shows that a total of ...
