Frequently Asked Questions (6)
Q2. What is the atmospheric forcing which drives the simulations presented here?
The atmospheric forcing which drives the simulations presented here is a climatological seasonalcycle forcing applied in a cycling way.
Q3. How many times is the ocean component called?
The time step of the ocean component is 1440 s (60 time steps per day), and the sea-ice component is called once every 5 time steps.
Q4. What is the empirical bulk parameterisation used in the simulations?
Surface heat fluxes (solar, infrared, latent and sensible heat) and freshwater flux forocean and sea- ice are calculated using the empirical bulk parameterisation described by Goosse (1997).
Q5. What is the significant problem in eddy-permitting z-coordinate?
Perhaps the most significant problem in eddy-permitting z-coordinate ocean models is themisrepresentation of flow-topography interactions (Penduff et al., 2005).
Q6. What is the first realistic simulation of the Zapiola Eddy?
The first realistic simulation of the Zapiola Eddy was obtained with asigma coordinate model by de Miranda et al. (1999) with a resolution of 1/3°.
