Journal ArticleDOI
Seasonal heat balance in the upper 100 m of the equatorial Atlantic Ocean
Julien Jouanno,Julien Jouanno,Frédéric Marin,Yves du Penhoat,Julio Sheinbaum,Jean-Marc Molines +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, a numerical simulation of the tropical Atlantic is used to diagnose the different contributions to the temperature tendencies in the upper ocean upper basin of the equatorial Atlantic, which is characterized by strong cooling in May-June and a secondary cooling in November-December.
Journal ArticleDOI
The mesoscale variability in the Caribbean Sea. Part I: Simulations and characteristics with an embedded model
Julien Jouanno,Julio Sheinbaum,Bernard Barnier,Jean-Marc Molines,Laurent Debreu,Florian Lemarié +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the variability in the Caribbean Sea is investigated using high resolution (1/15°) general circulation model experiments and simulations were carried out with a 2-way nested configuration of the NEMO primitive equation model.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mechanisms controlling warm water volume interannual variations in the equatorial Pacific: diabatic versus adiabatic processes
Matthieu Lengaigne,Ute Hausmann,Gurvan Madec,Christophe E. Menkès,Jérôme Vialard,Jean-Marc Molines +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the warm water volume (WWV) interannual variability is analyzed using forced general circulation model experiments and an original method for diagnosing processes responsible for WWV variations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Meridional transport of salt in the global ocean from an eddy-resolving model
Anne-Marie Tréguier,Julie Deshayes,Julien Le Sommer,Camille Lique,Gurvan Madec,Thierry Penduff,Jean-Marc Molines,Bernard Barnier,Romain Bourdallé-Badie,Claude Talandier +9 more
TL;DR: In this article, the meridional transport of salt is computed in a global eddy-resolving numerical model (1/12° resolution) in order to improve our understanding of the ocean salinity budget.
Journal ArticleDOI
The mesoscale variability in the Caribbean Sea. Part II: Energy sources
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined the processes which drive the production and the growth of the strong mesoscale eddy field in the Caribbean Sea using a general circulation model and found that the mean currents in the Mediterranean Sea are intrinsically unstable and vary spatially due to strong differences of current structure among basins.
