The Nondeterministic Nature of Kuroshio Penetration and Eddy Shedding in the South China Sea
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A ?°, 6-layer Pacific version of the Naval Research Laboratory Layered Ocean Model is used to investigate the nondeterministic nature of Kuroshio intrusion and eddy shedding into the South China Sea (SCS) on annual and ...
The Effect of Continental Slope on Buoyancy-Driven Circulation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The effect of continental slope on buoyancy-driven circulation has been studied using a two-layer quasigeostrophic model. In the model, buoyancy flux is incorporated as interfacial mass flux, which consists of narrow intense ...
Impact of Upper Ocean–Topographical Coupling and Isopycnal Outcropping in Japan/East Sea Models with 1/8° to 1/64° Resolution
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A regional primitive equation ocean model is used to investigate the impact of grid resolution, baroclinic instability, bottom topography, and isopycnal outcropping on the dynamics of the wind and throughflow-forced surface ...
Stability-Dependent Exchange Coefficients for Air–Sea Fluxes
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This study introduces exchange coefficients for wind stress (CD), latent heat flux (CL), and sensible heat flux (CS) over the global ocean. They are obtained from the state-of-the-art Coupled Ocean?Atmosphere Response ...

Seasonal Variation of the Indonesian Throughflow in Makassar Strait
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he seasonal variation of Indonesian Throughflow (ITF) transport is investigated using ocean general circulation model experiments with the Hybrid Coordinate Ocean Model (HYCOM). Twenty-eight years (1981?2008) of ?° ...
Efficient and Accurate Bulk Parameterizations of Air–Sea Fluxes for Use in General Circulation Models
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Efficient and computationally inexpensive simple bulk formulas that include the effects of dynamic stability are developed to provide wind stress, and latent and sensible heat fluxes at the air?sea interface in general ...
How Does Solar Attenuation Depth Affect the Ocean Mixed Layer? Water Turbidity and Atmospheric Forcing Impacts on the Simulation of Seasonal Mixed Layer Variability in the Turbid Black Sea
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A fine-resolution (≈3.2 km) Hybrid Coordinate Ocean Model (HYCOM) is used to investigate the impact of solar radiation attenuation with depth on the predictions of monthly mean sea surface height (SSH), mixed layer depth ...
Climatological SST and MLD Predictions from a Global Layered Ocean Model with an Embedded Mixed Layer
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The Naval Research Laboratory (NRL) Layered Ocean Model (NLOM) with an embedded mixed layer submodel is used to predict the climatological monthly mean sea surface temperature (SST) and surface ocean mixed layer depth (MLD) ...
A New Solar Radiation Penetration Scheme for Use in Ocean Mixed Layer Studies: An Application to the Black Sea Using a Fine-Resolution Hybrid Coordinate Ocean Model (HYCOM)
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A 1/25° ? 1/25° cos(lat) (longitude ? latitude) (≈3.2-km resolution) eddy-resolving Hybrid Coordinate Ocean Model (HYCOM) is introduced for the Black Sea and used to examine the effects of ocean turbidity on upper-ocean ...
