An Ocean Model’s Response to Scatterometer Winds
Two simulations of the North Atlantic have been run using the POP ocean model for approximately two and one half years each. One simulation used the 1.25 ◦ wind product from ECMWF and the other used the JPL Quikscat 0.25 ◦ gridded product. The resulting sea level anomaly fields from the simulations...
