Sea level variability and surface eddy statistics in the Mediterranean Sea from TOPEXPOSEIDON data
Two years of TOPEX/POSEIDON altimeter data have successfully been used to study the mesoscale field in the Mediterranean and to investigate the seasonal and year-toyear variability of the sea level and eddy statistics in this basin. The mesoscale field described by TOPEX/POSEIDON revealed a strong, but subbasin dependent, seasonal signal. Year-toyear variations are also evident in terms of both...
متن کاملSea level variability in the Arctic Ocean from AOMIP models
[1] Monthly sea levels from five Arctic Ocean Model Intercomparison Project (AOMIP) models are analyzed and validated against observations in the Arctic Ocean. The AOMIP models are able to simulate variability of sea level reasonably well, but several improvements are needed to reduce model errors. It is suggested that the models will improve if their domains have a minimum depth less than 10 m...
متن کاملInverse Modeling of Ocean Tides
The principal long term goal of this project is to develop a practical, portable, nested, tidal data assimilation scheme which makes use of all available data (e.g., altimetry data, current moorings, coastal radar) to constrain barotropic and baroclinic tides (especially tidal currents) in coastal areas and shallow seas. A second long term goal is to develop more efficient methods for assimilat...
متن کاملSea level rise in the Arctic Ocean
About 60 tide-gauge stations in the Kara, Laptev, East-Siberian and Chukchi Seas have recorded the sea level change from the 1950s through 1990s. Over this 40-year period, most of these stations show a significant sea level rise (SLR). In light of global change, this SLR could be a manifestation of warming in the Arctic coupled with a decrease of sea ice extent, warming of Atlantic waters, chan...
متن کاملOcean freshening, sea level rising, sea ice melting
[1] Estimates of 20th Century sea level rise are typically 1.5 to 2 mm/y, with a steric contribution of (0.5 ± 0.2) mm/y. Estimates of the eustatic contribution vary widely between 1.1 and +1.3 mm/y. We attempt an independent estimate of eustatic sea level rise based on the measured freshening of the global ocean, and with attention to the contribution from melting of sea ice (which affects fre...
