An eddy resolving quasi-geostrophic model of the Southern Ocean coupled to a dynamic atmospheric mixed layer is used to compare the performance of two different wind stress parameterisation schemes. The first is the standard quadratic drag law based on atmospheric velocity alone, while the second (m...
