Forced Response in Upper Ocean Fronts

在这个项目中，PI将研究上层海洋的响应 在中尺度锋的存在下， 海洋中的漩涡。 一个三维模型将 来检验辐射的机制 内部惯性波的表面锋区有一个 对表面惯性流变化的影响大于 做改良的艾克曼运输机 最近一项实验的数据 名为“正面海气相互作用实验”（FASINEX）的项目将 用于验证模型结果。

In this project, the PI will study the response of the upper ocean to strong wind-forcing in the presence of mesoscale fronts and eddies in the ocean. A three-dimensional model will be implemented to test the hypothesis that the mechanism of radiation of internal-inertial waves out of the surface frontal zone has a larger impact on the variability of surface inertial currents than does modified Ekman transport. Data from a recent experiment called the Frontal Air-Sea INteraction EXperiment (FASINEX) will be used to verify the model results.
