The Effects of Mesoscale Eddies on the Main Subtropical Thermocline
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The effects of mesoscale eddies on the main subtropical thermocline are explored using a simply configured wind- and buoyancy-driven primitive equation numerical model in conjunction with transformed Eulerian mean diagnostics ...
Argon as a Tracer of Cross-Isopycnal Mixing in the Thermocline
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Noble gases such as argon are unaffected by chemical reactions in the ocean interior, but a number of physical mechanisms can lead to measurable sea level atmospheric disequilibrium in subsurface waters of the ocean. One ...
The Effects of Mesoscale Eddies on the Stratification and Transport of an Ocean with a Circumpolar Channel
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The effects of eddies in a primitive equation ocean model configured in a single hemisphere domain with circumpolar channels at their poleward ends are investigated; in particular, two regimes for the mass balance in the ...
