Regional oceanic models can be developed and used efficiently for the investigation of
regional and coastal domains, provided a satisfactory prescription for the open boundary …

This chapter is concerned with details of how the discrete model respects the conversion
between various forms of energy. For example, how does work done by currents against the …

A model of the Atlantic Ocean was forced with decadal-scale time series of surface fluxes
taken from the National Centers for Environmental Prediction–National Center for …

This book offers a comprehensive overview of the models and methods employed in the
rapidly advancing field of numerical ocean circulation modeling. For those new to the field …

Interocean exchange of heat and salt around South Africa is thought to be a key link in the
maintenance of the global overturning circulation of the ocean. It takes place at the Agulhas …

In contrast to the atmosphere, knowledge about interdecadal variability of the North Atlantic
circulation is relatively restricted. It is the objective of this study to contribute to …

A regional ocean circulation model was used to project Baltic Sea climate at the end of the
twenty-first century. A set of four scenario simulations was performed utilizing two global …

The purpose of this chapter is to present some features of the equation of state used in
MOM4p1, with the discussion here an extension of that given in Griffies et al.(2004). The …

Within the Swedish Regional Climate Modeling Program, SWECLIM, a three‐dimensional (3‐
