Application of Thin-Plate Splines in Two Dimensions to Oceanographic Tracer Data
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: his study explores the utility of the thin-plate spline (TPS) as a mapping procedure for oceanographic sections of bottle data in comparison with objective mapping (OM), sometimes referred to as objective interpolation. ...
Estimates of North Atlantic Ventilation and Mode Water Formation for Winters 2002–06
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Lagrangian estimates for ventilation rates in the Gulf Stream Extension using Argo and World Ocean Circulation Experiment/Atlantic Climate and Circulation Experiment (WOCE/ACCE) float data, scatterometer (QuikSCAT) wind ...
The Role of Rough Topography in Mediating Impacts of Bottom Drag in Eddying Ocean Circulation Models
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: otivated by the substantial sensitivity of eddies in two-layer quasigeostrophic (QG) turbulence models to the strength of bottom drag, this study explores the sensitivity of eddies in more realistic ocean general circulation ...
Climate Process Team on Internal-Wave Driven Ocean Mixing
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: cent advances in our understanding of internal-wave driven turbulent mixing in the ocean interior are summarized. New parameterizations for global climate ocean models, and their climate impacts, are introduced.
