9633470 Gordon This is a collaborative project to develop a regional, prognostic, three-dimensional numerical model of the Indonesian Seas Archipelago to investigate circulation and mixing, particularly related to the exchange between the Pacific and Indian Ocean. The overall goal is a model capable of describing both the steady state and time variations of the circulation for a given external forcing. Specific objectives include investigation of the effects of inter-ocean pressure differences and local forcing on transport and thermohaline characteristics, the role of bottom topography in partitioning the throughflow, and the influence of tidal oscillations on turbulent mixing. The Blumberg-Mellor model will provide the basis for the modeling effort. The team at Princeton will provide the model, along with the expertise to apply it to the specific region. The team at Columbia University will provide the expertise for analysis of the available data and model output.

这是一个合作项目，旨在开发印度尼西亚海群岛的区域、预测、三维数值模型，以研究环流和混合，特别是与太平洋和印度洋之间的交换有关。总体目标是建立一个模型，能够描述给定外部强迫下环流的稳定状态和时间变化。具体目标包括调查海洋间压力差和局地强迫对运输和温盐特征的影响，海底地形在划分贯穿流中的作用，以及潮汐振荡对湍流混合的影响。Blumberg-Mellor模型将为建模工作提供基础。普林斯顿大学的团队将提供该模型，以及将其应用于特定地区的专业知识。哥伦比亚大学的团队将提供分析现有数据和模型输出的专业知识。
