Based on Levitus' (1982) data set, a combination of robust diagonstic and fully prognostic techniques is used to evaluate for the Mediterranean Sea a climatology consistent with the physics of the GFDL-OGCM. Model experiments are carried out with 28 levels and with a horizontal resolution of DELTA-lambda = 1/3-degrees, DELTA-phi = 1/4-degrees. The model is forced mechanically by wind stress taken from Hellerman and Rosenstein's (1983) data. Sea surface temperature and salinity are prescribed from Levitus' (1982) data. Exchange flows in the Strait of Gibraltar are explicitly prescribed with 1.5 x 10(6) m3s-1. The focus is put on the analysis of initial and boundary conditions data. The dynamical effects of the exchange flows in the Strait of Gibraltar, as... |
