Sea Surface Temperature-Evaporation Feedback and the Ocean's Thermohaline Circulation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A simple surface boundary condition that allows evaporation to depend on sea surface temperature is developed for use in uncoupled ocean models. A positive feedback with the thermohaline circulation is produced, whereby ...
Vorticity Dynamics and Zonally Averaged Ocean Circulation Models
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Diagnostic equations relating the zonally averaged overturning circulation to north?south density variations are derived and used to determine a new closure scheme for use in zonally averaged ocean models. The presentation ...
