TLDR
In this article, the first baroclinic deformation radius to the horizontal grid spacing indicates where an ocean model could explicitly simulate eddy effects; a function of this ratio can be used to specify where eddy effect are parameterized and where they are explicitly modeled.About:

Quantifying Eulerian Eddy Leakiness in an Idealized Model
TL;DR: In this article, rotationally coherent Lagrangian vortices (RCLVs) and sea surface height (SSH) eddies are identified based on the Lagrangians and Eulerian framework, respectively.

Influence of ocean tides and ice shelves on ocean–ice interactions and dense shelf water formation in the D’Urville Sea, Antarctica
Pierre-Vincent Huot,Thierry Fichefet,Nicolas C. Jourdain,Pierre Mathiot,Clément Rousset,Christoph Kittel,Xavier Fettweis +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, a series of NEMO-LIM numerical simulations was used to assess the sensitivity of dense water formation in the D’Urville Sea to the representation of tides and ocean-ice shelf interactions during the years 2010-2015.

Using Machine Learning at scale in numerical simulations with SmartSim: An application to ocean climate modeling
Sam Partee,M.S. Ellis,Alessandro Rigazzi,Andrew Shao,Scott Bachman,Gustavo Marques,Benjamin Robbins +6 more
TL;DR: SmartSim as discussed by the authors is a library dedicated to enabling online analysis and Machine Learning (ML) for high performance, numerical simulations, which can be used to predict the oceanic eddy kinetic energy (EKE), which is a variable that is used to tune different turbulence closures in the model.

TL;DR: A strong dependence of future sea-level change on ocean model resolution in simulations with a global climate model is demonstrated and it is indicated that, at least for the Caribbean Sea, adequate regional projections of sea- level change can only be obtained with ocean models which capture mesoscale processes.

Atmosphere-Ocean Dynamics
TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe how the Ocean-Atmosphere system is driven by transfer of properties between the atmosphere and the ocean. But they do not consider the effects of side boundaries.
