MARC recordDynamics of the wind-driven sea level variation around Antarctica / Kazuya Kusahara, Kay I. Ohshima.
| Title: | Dynamics of the wind-driven sea level variation around Antarctica / Kazuya Kusahara, Kay I. Ohshima. |
| Author(s): | Kusahara, Kazuya. Ohshima, Kay I. |
| Date: | 2009. |
| In: | Journal of Physical Oceanography. (2009.), Vol. 39(3) (2009) |
| Abstract: | Uses barotropic shallow-water model to investigate dynamics of sea level variation around Antarctica, and demonstrates that wind stress at coastal boundary is responsible for coastal sea level. Model identifies both dominant coherent signal and westward propagating signals trapped over shelf and slope. Considers analytical solutions of oceanic response to alongshore wind stress over shelf and slope in circumpolar domain in which wavenumber-zero mode appears and characterizes coastal dynamics around Antarctica. At periods from 10 to 200 days coherent sea level can be explained quantitatively by solution of this wavenumber-zero mode with 5-10-day damping time scale. Wavenumber-zero component of wind stress, corresponding to Antarctic Oscillation (AAO) or southern annular mode (SAM), is dominant forcing. |
