Hindcasting Changes in Upper-Ocean Thermal Structure on Short Timescales with Data from MILE and Ocean Weather Station Papa
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The skill of mixed-layer hindcasts of short (12?120 h) duration was investigated using data from Ocean Weather Station Papa for the years 1960?68, and from the Mixed Layer Experiment (MILE), which was conducted about 4O ...
On the Structure and Dynamics of the Oceanic Bottom Boundary Layer
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The Mellor and Yamada (1974) Level II turbulence closure scheme is used to study the oceanic bottom boundary layer (BBL). The model is tested against observations of the BBL obtained on the western Florida Shelf reported ...
Synoptic Forecasting of the Oceanic Mixed Layer Using the Navy's Operational Environmental Data Base: Present Capabilities and Future Applications
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A synoptic forecast model of the oceanic mixed layer has been developed for operational use at the U.S. Navy's Fleet Numerical Oceanography Center (FNOC), Monterey, Calif. The potential success of this model depends ...
