Volumetric
T-S censuses for summer
(Aug.
15). The images show the
base-10
logarithm of water volume
in
cubic meters. Superimposed are
contours
of sigma-0 calculated
using
the HYCOM/MICOM
equation
of state.
The
censuses of the four hybrid-
coordinate
simulations are very
similar
to each other. Some
differences
are observed with
the
MICOM mode simulation. All
simulations
differ substantially
with
the observations.
