Representation of the Denmark Strait overflow in a z -coordinate eddying configuration of the NEMO (v3.6) ocean model: resolution and parameter impacts
We investigate in this paper the sensitivity of the representation of the Denmark Strait overflow produced by a regional z -coordinate configuration of NEMO (version 3.6) to the horizontal and vertical grid resolutions and to various numerical and physical parameters. Three different horizontal reso...
