RISInertial Motions during the Transient Adjustment of a Density Anomaly in the Equatorial Ocean with Application to the Western Pacific Warm Pool
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This paper is focused on the spontaneous transient adjustment of a buoyant lens of water with uniform density, initially at rest in the vicinity of the equator. For parameters typical of the western Pacific warm pool, the ...
Structure and Causes of the Pulsation Mode in the Antarctic Circumpolar Current South of Australia
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The subsurface variability of potential temperature and salinity south of Australia along 130°E is studied over a 25-yr period (1980?2004). The study is done with fields provided by a global eddy-permitting model of the ...
Response of the Southern Ocean to the Southern Annular Mode: Interannual Variability and Multidecadal Trend
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The authors evaluate the response of the Southern Ocean to the variability and multidecadal trend of the southern annular mode (SAM) from 1972 to 2001 in a global eddy-permitting model of the DRAKKAR project. The transport ...
Standing and Transient Eddies in the Response of the Southern Ocean Meridional Overturning to the Southern Annular Mode
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: o refine the understanding of how the Southern Ocean responds to recent intensification of the southern annular mode (SAM), a regional ocean model at two eddy-permitting resolutions was forced with two synthetic interannual ...
