A numerical model of the Weddell Sea: Large scale circulation and water mass distribution

A circumpolar model for regional studies of the wind-driven and thermohaline circulation of theSouthern Ocean is described. A first series of numerical experiments focusses on the WeddellSea. The results of 20-year integrations are compared to observations. Artificial passive tracersand Lagrangian f...
