Interpreting wind-driven Southern Ocean variability in a stochastic framework
A stochastic model is derived from wind stress and bottom pressure gauge data to examine the response of the Antarctic Circumpolar Current (ACC) transport to wind stress forcing. A general method is used to estimate the drift and diffusion coef cients of a continuous stationaryMarkovian system. As a rst approximation, the response of the ACC to wind stress forcing can be describedby a multiv...
متن کاملEnergetics of wind-driven barotropic variability in the Southern Ocean
This study addresses the energetics of the Southern Ocean, in response to high-frequency wind forcing. A constant-density, multi-layer model is forced with a band of stochastically varying wind stress. The focus is on the interplay between the surface layer and the interior circulation. In line with previous examinations, it is concluded that the interior ocean is not directly energized by the ...
متن کاملWind-Driven Variability of the Subtropical North Pacific Ocean
The Argo array provides a unique dataset to explore variability of the subsurface ocean interior. This study considers the subtropical North Pacific Ocean during the period from 2004 to 2011, when Argo coverage has been relatively complete in time and space. Two distinct patterns of Argo dynamic height transport function (d DH) are observed: in 2004/05, the gyre is stronger, and in 2008/09 it i...
متن کامل3D Modeling of Wind-Driven Circulation In The Northern Indian Ocean During Monsoon
Abstract The purpose of this research is to design and identify some of the natures and characteristics of high-resolution surface currents in the Northern Indian Ocean. The pattern of 3D circulation of the Wind-driven surface currents, Sea surface temperature (SST) and Sea Surface Salinity (SSS) distribution in the Northern Indian Ocean using The MIT general circulation model (MITgcm) with ho...
متن کاملChaos in Thèsliced Cone' Model of Wind-driven Ocean Circulation
This paper presents a numerical exploration of the behavior of thèsliced cone' laboratory apparatus, a simple model of wind-driven ocean circulation in a basin entirely bounded by continental shelves. The asymptotic (large time) variability of the ow is studied as a function of forcing strength using the techniques of dynamical systems theory. This approach sheds light on the transitions which ...
