Winter
(February 15) 200-1000 dbar
|
steric
height anomaly. All fields
|
|
simulated
by HYCOM with hybrid
|
|
|
vertical
coordinates are qualitatively
|
|
very
similar. The subtropical gyre
|
|
simulated
by HYCOM in MICOM
|
|
mode
is not as strong as in the other
|
|
|
simulations.
The subtropical gyre
|
|
strength
in the hybrid coordinate
|
|
simulation
is in closer agreement
|
|
with
observations.
