The formulation of a thermocline model and application[s] to ocean-climate studies

In this thesis, we formulate a new 3-dimensional planetary geostrophic (PG) ocean general circulation model in spherical coordinates for use in ocean-climate studies. The model equations consist of full prognostic temperature and salinity equations and diagnostic momentum equations. The model is ver...
