1. Numerical studies of mesoscale eddies using quasigeostrophic and primitive equation ocean models

Creator:: Batteen, Mary L.
Abstract:: The dynamical role of mesoscale eddies in the ocean general circulation is investigated using eddy-resolving quasigeostrophic (QG) and primitive equation (FE) models which are parametrically identical. The results of both QG and FE numerical experiments in mid-latitude, rectangular ocean basins are systematically intercompared and extensively analyzed in terms of basic...
