The Sub-Antarctic Flux and Dynamics Experiment (SAFDE): Renewal Proposal for Data Analysis and Model Comparisons

9911974该合作项目包括主要根据最近的太阳-南极通量动力学实验（SAFDE）期间收集的数据对亚南极锋（SAF）的动力学进行的各种分析。 分析将涉及：平均环流特征的结构;通过SAFDE区域的质量和热量输送;纬向动量和涡度收支; SAFDE区域的中尺度变率; SAF曲流的垂直结构;以及跨锋面输送。 将把来自SAFDE的现场数据与该区域的遥感数据，特别是高度计数据结合起来。 在SAFDE期间观察到的SAF的结构和可变性和最近的GCM模拟中展示的SAF之间的比较。

9911974This collaborative project consists of a variety of analyses of the dynamics of the Sub-Antarctic Front (SAF) based primarily on data collected during the recent Sun-Antarctic Flux Dynamics Experiment (SAFDE). The analyses will address: the structure of mean circulation features; mass and heat transports through the SAFDE region; zonal momentum and vorticity budgets; mesoscale variability in the SAFDE region; the vertical structure of meanders of the SAF; and cross-frontal transport. In situ data from SAFDE will be combined with remotely sensed data for the region, particularly altimeter data. A comparison will be made between the structure and variability of the SAF observed during SAFDE and the SAF exhibited in recent GCM simulations.
