Interdecadal Variability in a Zonally Averaged Ocean Model: An Adjustment Oscillator
A meridional-plane, hemispherical ocean model is developed to study interdecadal variability of the thermohaline circulation (THC). The model differs from previous formulations of zonally averaged ocean models by using a prognostic equation to calculate the meridional velocity. This allows the incorporation of an adjustment timescale comparable to the advective timescale of the meridional overt...
متن کاملA pr 1 99 5 The stability of a zonally averaged thermohaline circulation model
1 ABSTRACT A combination of analytical and numerical techniques are used to efficiently determine the qualitative and quantitative behaviour of a one-basin zonally averaged thermohaline circulation ocean model under various forcing regimes and over a large region of parameter space. In contrast to earlier studies which use time stepping to find the steady solutions, the steady state equations a...
متن کاملSolar-QBO interaction and its impact on stratospheric ozone in a zonally averaged photochemical transport model of the middle atmosphere
[1] We investigate the solar cycle modulation of the quasi-biennial oscillation (QBO) in stratospheric zonal winds and its impact on stratospheric ozone with an updated version of the zonally averaged CHEM2D middle atmosphere model. We find that the duration of the westerly QBO phase at solar maximum is 3 months shorter than at solar minimum, a more robust result than in an earlier CHEM2D study...
متن کاملa 2d numerical depth-averaged model for unsteady flow in open channel bends
the purpose of this paper is to present a 2d depth-averaged model for simulating and examining unsteady flow patterns in open channel bends. in particular, this paper proposes a 2d depth-averaged model that takes into account the influence of the secondary flow phenomenon through calculation of the dispersion stresses. the dispersion terms which arose from the integration of the product of the ...
متن کاملThe Surface Branch of the Zonally Averaged Mass Transport Circulation in the Troposphere
The near-surface branch of the overturning mass transport circulation in the troposphere, containing the equatorward flow, is examined in isentropic and geometric coordinates. A discussion of the zonal momentum balance within isentropic layers shows that the equatorward flow at a given latitude is confined to isentropic layers that typically intersect the surface at that latitude. As a conseque...
