RISSensitivity of an Equatorial Pacific OGCM to the Lateral Diffusion
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: An OGCM is used to investigate the importance of lateral mixing in the tropical Pacific Ocean circulation. Horizontal subgrid-scale physics is parameterized by the usual Laplacian operator. Three simulations are performed ...
Long Equatorial Waves in a High-Resolution OGCM Simulation of the Tropical Pacific Ocean during the 1985–94 TOGA Period
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A high-resolution oceanic general circulation model (OGCM) of the three tropical oceans is used to investigate long equatorial wave activity in the Pacific Ocean during the 1985?94 TOGA period. The ARPEGE atmospheric general ...
Satellite and In Situ Salinity: Understanding Near-Surface Stratification and Subfootprint Variability
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: emote sensing of salinity using satellite-mounted microwave radiometers provides new perspectives for studying ocean dynamics and the global hydrological cycle. Calibration and validation of these measurements is challenging ...
