Regional Differences in Upper Ocean Variability
Time series of upper-ocean variability are presented for the eight model grid
points shown on the following slide. The points are:
NAC (North Atlantic Current)
STMW (Subtropical Mode Water formation region)
SARG (Sargasso Sea, interior western subtropical gyre)
ESTG (interior eastern subtropical gyre)
EBC (subtropical eastern boundary current)
CRBN (Caribbean Sea)
TRDW (North Atlantic Trade Winds)
EQTR (Equator)
Two sets of analysis are presented for temperature
One year time series
Five year time series
Three cases are compared
