Abstract:

Vertical mixing in the Indonesian Seas has been considered to be responsible for the apparent freshness of the throughﬂow when 'it enters the Indian Down. A three-dimensional primitive equation numerical model of the Indonesian Seas forced with a prescribed throughflow, transport consisting of North Pacific waters, is used to determine local dynamic processes which may modify the characteristics of the throughﬂow properties. The lack of long-term current measurements in the Indonesian Seas presents some difﬁculties in determining the certainty of the derived velocity ﬁelds. As an alternative,

Abstract:

Preliminary results of a two-layer quasi-geostrophic box model of a wind-driven ocean are presented. The new aspects of this work in relation with conventional eddy models are a finite element formulation of the quasi-geostrophic equations and the use of no-slip boundary condition on the horizontal solid boundaries. In contrast to eddy resolving models that utilize free-slip boundary conditions our results suggest that the obtention of ocean eddies with the no-slip constraints requires a more restricted range of parameters, in particular much lower horizontal eddy viscosity eddy coefficients

Abstract:

The Southern Ocean is an important region for the sequestration of heat, carbon dioxide and other tracers. The Southern Ocean circulation is typically described in a circumpolarly averaged sense as a Meridional Overturning Circulation (MOC), but the detailed 3-D pathways that make up this circulation remain poorly understood. We use Lagrangian particle trajectories, obtained from eddy permitting numerical models, to map out and quantify different aspects of the 3-D circulation. We first introduce various definitions used to quantify efficient export from the Antarctic Circumpolar Current (ACC)

Abstract:

The Early Eocene (47-56 Ma) 'greenhouse' climate represented the warmest climatic conditions witnessed in the last 90 million years, with peak Eocene warmth (the Early Eocene Climatic optimum, EECO) occurring around 50-52 Ma (Sexton et al. 2006; Bijl et al. 2009; Zachos et al. 2008; Littler et al. 2014) with subsequent global cooling thereafter (Sexton et al. 2006; Zachos et al. 2008). Ocean circulation plays a critical role in redistributing thermal energy across the planet and providing ventilation to the deepest parts of the ocean.

We have developed a C-grid primitive equation ocean general circulation model with Cartesian and $ beta$-plane geometry. Temperature is the only state variable. The C-grid gives better results than the B-grid in reproducing the growth rates of linear unstable modes of the Raileigh-Benard equations. A semi-implicit scheme is used to treat the Coriolis term, which is important for efficient integration in coarse resolution large scale modelling studies. A new viscosity term which has a damping effect only on the divergence field associated with gravity waves is also introduced. The model can rep

Abstract:

Oceans play a vital role as one of the major components of Earth's climate system. The study of oceanic processes and the complexity inherent in dynamic ows is essential for understanding their regulatory character on the climate's variability. A key region for the study of such intrinsic oceanic variability is the Southern Ocean. In the form of a wind-driven, zonally unbounded, strong eastward ow, the Antarctic Circumpolar Current (ACC) circumnavigates the Antarctic continent connecting each of the ocean basins. The dynamics of the ACC, which is characterised by the absence of land barriers,

Abstract:

The Large-scale Semi-Geostrophic Equations (LSGE, Salmon[73]) are three-dimensional equations valid for an ocean with a rigid lid and length scales much greater than the internal deformation radius (about 40km). In this thesis I reduce the LSGE to a pair of two-dimensional equations via the ansatz that the temperature is independent of the vertical co-ordinate. I refer to these as the Depth-Independent-Temperature (DIT) equations. Whilst this is regarded as a paradigm for the entire ocean, the reduction is similar in spirit to that utilised by many authors for modelling the mixed layer of the

Firstly the region of Mediterranean outflow in the North Atlantic.

An additional forcing mechanism for the CC is the Leeuwin Current in the western part of the domain.

First, a sensitivity study is given of the sea-ice model, which is both dynamic and thermodynamic. The robustness of the sea-ice component in an uncoupled mode is demonstrated.

During the last 21,000 years, the planet underwent major changes. The atmospheric CO2 concentration increased ∼50% (Monnin et al., 2001) and the mean global temperature increased 4.0±0.8°C until pre-industrial times (Annan and Hargreaves, 2013). As a consequence of this warming, the huge ice sheets that covered North America, Northern Europe and part of Eurasia melted and the polar and subpolar ocean surface received a large amount of freshwater from these retracting ice sheets. The input of freshwater alters pressure gradients on the sea surface and also the density of water masses
