متن کاملLagrangian validation of numerical drifter trajectories using drifting buoys: Application to the Agulhas system
The skill of numerical Lagrangian drifter trajectories in three numerical models is assessed by comparing these numerically obtained paths to the trajectories of drifting buoys in the real ocean. The skill assessment is performed using the two-sample Kolmogorov–Smirnov statistical test. To demonstrate the assessment procedure, it is applied to three different models of the Agulhas region. The t...
متن کاملEstimating the Kuroshio Axis South of Japan Using Combination of Satellite Altimetry and Drifting Buoys
By tracking the locally strongest part of the sea-surface velocity field, which was obtained by integrating data of satellite altimeters and surface drifting buoys, we extracted the Kuroshio axis south of Japan every 10 days from October 1992 to December 2000. The obtained axes clearly express the effect of the bottom topography; three modes were observed when the Kuroshio ran over the Izu Ridg...
متن کاملThe dynamics of deepwater offloading buoys
Deepwater offloading buoys are being used in West Africa to allow efficient loading of spread-moored FPSOs. These buoys have a relatively small displacement when compared to other floating systems, with the majority of the displacement being used to support the mooring system and the oil offloading lines. This results in a floating system that has a very active response to the environment, coup...
