Numerical modeling of Hudson Bay Complex, sea ice regime and sea surface temperature
This thesis presents the numerical simulations in Hudson Bay Complex (HBC) in regards to its mass and surface energy balance. First, the Sea Surface Temperature (SST) from four NEMO (Nucleus for European Modelling of the Ocean) model simulations are analysed to study the bulk flux parameterization t...

First, the Sea Surface Temperature (SST) from four NEMO (Nucleus for European Modelling of the Ocean) model simulations are analysed to study the bulk flux parameterization to compute SST over the Hudson Bay Complex for the summer months (August and September) from 2002 to 2009.

Results showed that the thermodynamic fluctuations are the dominant term in the total ice tendency variations for all HBC sections and the dynamic term plays a minor role in the total ice thickness trends.
