Rotary spectra of surface kinetic energy in drifters and high-resolution global ocean models

Creator:

Brasch, Jonathan M, Elipot, Shane, and Arbic, Brian

Description:

For Drifters, HYCOM, MITgcm: Spectra and kinetic energy files. Please see readme.txt for a description of all data and code contained here. and - Compare kinetic energies (KE) of high-resolution global ocean models estimated from rotary spectra to KE in surface drifter observations. - Near-inertial KE is closer to drifter observations in models with frequently updated wind forcing - Internal tide KE is closer to drifter observations in models with topographic wave drag

Keyword:
