Abstract: arameterization of mesoscale eddies is an important problem of modern ocean dynamics and modeling. The most widely used scheme is the so-called Gent?McWilliams parameterization, which describes the eddy-induced transport ...

Abstract: To study the relationship between mesoscale variability and the mean circulation of the Antarctic Circumpolar Current, the authors have assimilated Geosat altimeter measurements into a quasigeostrophic model of the Southern ...

Abstract: ntegral constraints for momentum and energy impose restrictions on parameterizations of eddy potential vorticity (PV) fluxes. The impact of these constraints is studied for a wind-forced quasigeostrophic two-layer zonal ...
