Winter
(February 15) temperature
vertically
averaged within the mixed
layer.
The
simulated fields are very similar,
largely
because ocean surface
temperature
tends to track air
temperature.
Model
T tends to be too warm in both
the
eastern equatorial region and in
the
western subpolar gyre. The lack
of
sea ice and meridional overturning
contribute
to the latter discrepancy.
