Forced Near-Inertial Motion and Dissipation of Low-Frequency Kinetic Energy in a Wind-Driven Channel Flow
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: sing primitive equation simulations, a zonally periodic channel is considered. The channel flow is forced by a combination of steady and high-frequency winds. The high-frequency forcing excites near-inertial motion, and ...
Effects of Adding Forced Near-Inertial Motion to a Wind-Driven Channel Flow
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: An eddy-resolving primitive equation ocean model is used to examine energy transfers between frequency bands. Steady wind forcing is used to drive a geostrophic channel to which high-frequency winds are added. This excites ...
