Modeling Langrangian Displacement of Watermasses in the DeepEquatorial Ocean

本项目是一个拉格朗日位移的调查， 赤道大西洋深处的水团， 分析和数值方法。 两个数值模型是 使用：减少重力浅水模式，和GDFL海洋 大气环流模式 主要的科学目标是（1） 波浪产生主要机制识别 瞬变以及这些瞬变如何影响拉格朗日 水团位移;（2）海底影响分析 拉格朗日赤道上的地形和海岸线几何 运输

This project is an investigation of the Lagrangian displacement of water masses in the deep equatorial Atlantic Ocean using both analytical and numerical approaches. Two numerical models are used: a reduced gravity shallow water model, and the GDFL ocean general circulation model. The main scientific goals are (1) identification of dominant mechanisms for generating wave transients and how can these transients affect Lagrangian displacement of water masses and, (2) analysis of effects of bottom topography and shoreline geometry on the Lagrangian equatorial transport.
