9402891 de Szoeke This project consists of conducting long-term integrations (100 years) with a global ocean model based on the Bleck-Boudra GCM with massive parallel code developed at Oregon State University (OSU) for the TMC CM5 computer. The focus of the study is on improvements on the surface fluxes and mixed layer processes that drive the thermohaline circulation of the world oceans. A series of idealized process experiments will be run focusing on mid-latitude wind- and buoyancy-driven flows, interaction of mixed layer and sea ice in sub-polar regions, the role of eddies in meridional transport of properties, and the influence of bottom topography on mesoscale eddy dynamics. After these process experiments are completed, a fully global eddy-resolving ocean circulation model will be run with 12 density layers and 1/6-degree mean horizontal resolution. ***

9402891 de Szoeke这个项目包括与以Bleck-Boudra GCM为基础的全球海洋模式进行长期积分(100年)，以及俄勒冈州立大学为TMC CM5计算机开发的大量并行代码。这项研究的重点是改进推动世界海洋温盐环流的表面通量和混合层过程。将进行一系列理想化过程试验，重点关注中纬度风和浮力驱动的流动、亚极区混合层和海冰的相互作用、涡旋在经向输送中的作用以及海底地形对中尺度涡旋动力学的影响。在这些过程实验完成后，将运行一个具有12个密度层和1/6度平均水平分辨率的完全全球涡旋分辨海洋环流模式。***
