Modelling the Subthermocline Equatorial Circulation

在这个项目中，P.I.S将应用模拟技术，包括一个新的海洋大气环流模式，来研究在世界大洋赤道地区温跃层下观测到的深纬向急流的发生。将使用两个模式，一个具有非常精细的分辨率来确定深部急流的非线性性质，另一个具有较粗分辨率的模式，使用来自第一个模式的波参数化来研究大尺度强迫。

In this project, P.I.'s will apply modeling techniques, including a new ocean general circulation model, to study the occurrence of deep zonal jets observed below the thermocline in equatorial regions of the world ocean. Two models will be used, one with very fine resolution to determine the nonlinear nature of the deep jets, and another, coarser resolution model, using the wave- parameterization from the first model to investigate large scale forcing.
