Structure and Dynamics of the Current Systems North of the Hawaiian Ridge

9521701宾厄姆这项建议是为了研究夏威夷海脊以北的当前系统、水的性质以及时间和空间的变异性。这些研究的目的是了解脊线的动态以及它如何适应副热带环流，并对其进行修正。关于夏威夷海脊如何影响大尺度环流的结果将使我们了解在高温(夏威夷海洋时间序列)观测到的变率有多典型，以及它对环流变率的代表性有多大。这项研究将基于对该地区所有现有数据的分析。

9521701 Bingham This proposal is to study the current systems, water properties, and time and space variability north of the Hawaiian Ridge. These studies are aimed to understand the dynamics of the Ridge and how it fits into, and modify the subtropical gyre. Results on how the Hawaiian Ridge affects the large scale circulation will let us understand how typical is the variability observed at the HOT (Hawaiian Ocean Time series) site and how representative it is of the variability of the gyre. The study will be based on the analysis of all available data in the area.
