Enchancements to Deep Oceanic Convection in the Arctic System

这一提议是对北极进行系统研究的一部分 环境及其在全球变化中的作用， 美国国家科学基金会的北极系统科学计划。 这是一个两年 探索湍流混合过程作用的项目 在北冰洋。 这些考虑因素以前 在传统的混合层建模中， 北极系统的海洋-大气-冰相互作用。 将开发一个模型层次，并将其应用于 确定各种过程的重要性， 对北极的环流有特别影响 海洋

This proposal is part of a systematic study of the Arctic environment and its role in global change which is promoted by NSF's Arctic System Science Program. It is a two year project to explore the roles of turbulent mixing processes in the Arctic Ocean. These considerations have previously been neglected in traditional mixed layer modeling applied to the arctic system for ocean-atmosphere-ice interactions. A hierarchy of models will be developed and applied to ascertain the importance of various processes that are specifically influential to the circulation of the Arctic Ocean.
