Winter
(February 15) S along
|
|
33W
to a depth of 500m. The thick
|
|
line
is the mixed layer base.
|
|
|
The
simulated fields are generally
|
|
similar
in structure and are
|
|
reasonably
consistent with the
|
|
|
observations.
A major exception is
|
|
the
lower nearsurface S in the interior
|
subtropical
gyre for the HYCOM
|
|
K-T
MICOM mode simulation. This
|
|
|
is
associated with the westward
|
|
displacement
of the region of large
|
|
salinity
in the subtropical gyre
|
|
relative
to the location in other
|
|
|
HYCOM
simulations and in
|
|
observations
that was documented
|
|
in earlier
slides.
