The Sensitivity of a Global Ocean Model to Wind Forcing: A Test Using Sea Level and Wind Observations From Satellites and Operational Analysis
Investigated in this study is the response of a global ocean general circulation model to forcing provided by two wind products: operational analysis from the National Center for Environmental Prediction observations made by the 1 radar The sea level simulated by the model using the two wind fields...
