Mesoscale Variability and Processes in an eddy-resolving global POP simulation

将分析并行海洋计划(POP)模式的高分辨率全球配置，以确定盆地、半球和环流之间属性的中尺度转移，目的是确定这些波动对温盐属性的作用。全球涡旋变化将通过计算能量水平和固有长度尺度(欧拉和拉格朗日)来量化，以便与全球或近全球覆盖范围(漂移、测高和浮标)进行比较。将计算经向热传输、它们的分量以及散度和时间变异性。将特别强调涡流热传输。西部边界流和热带将是分析中尺度涡旋的特征、产生和耗散机制以及动力学和特性通量的感兴趣的区域。这些研究将与黑潮延伸系统研究(KESS)的研究相协调。沿等周期的混合率将根据模式涡动和弥散统计计算，然后将与南大洋等周期实验(SOFIE)获得的速率进行比较。将建立一个基于网络的自主提取系统，以传播模型输出的子集，以帮助促进协作和社区使用。

A high-resolution global configuration of the Parallel Ocean Program (POP) model will be analyzed to determine the mescoscale transfer of properties between basins, hemispheres, and gyres with the goal of identifying the role of these fluctuations with thermohaline properties. Global eddy variability will be quantified by calculating energy levels and intrinsic length scales (Eularian and Lagrangian) to allow comparison with global or near-global coverage (drifters, altimetry, and floats). Meridional heat transports, their components, and divergence and time variability will be calculated. Particular emphasis will be placed on eddy heat transports. The western boundary current and tropics will be regions of interest for the analysis of the characteristics, generation and dissipation mechanisms, and dynamics and property fluxes associated with mesoscale eddies. The studies will be coordinated with those of the Kuroshio Extension System Study (KESS). Mixing rates along isopycnals will be computed from the model eddy and dispersion statistics and then will be compared with rates obtained from the Southern Ocean Floats on Isopycnal Experiment (SOFIE). A web-based autonomous extraction system will be set up to disseminate subsets of model output to help facilitate collaborations and community use.
