Improved representation of upper ocean dynamics and mixed layer depths in a model of the North Atlantic on switching from eddy-permitting to eddy-resolving grid resolution
Two configurations of a primitive-equation model of the North Atlantic are analyzed with respect to the simulated cycling of energy, mass, and heat in the upper ocean. One model is eddy-permitting (1/3° horizontal resolution), the other one is eddy-resolving (1/9° resolution), with both models using...
