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:

IBI-CCS: a regional high-resolution model to evaluate western Europe sea level changes
TL;DR: In this article, the authors developed the IBI-CCS regional ocean model based on a 1/12 ° north-eastern Atlantic NEMO ocean model configuration to dynamically downscale CNRM-CM6-1-HR, a GCM with a ¼ ° resolution ocean model component developed for the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project 6th Phase (CMIP6) by the Centre National de Recherches Meteorologiques (CNRM).

Isopycnal mixing
TL;DR: Isopycnal mixing does not directly enter the mechanical energy budget, and instead must be studied through a range of fluid dynamical perspectives, including quasigeostrophic turbulence theory, mixing-length theory, and Lagrangian kinematics as discussed by the authors .

Influences of Mesoscale Ocean Eddies on Flow Vertical Structure in a Resolution‐Based Model Hierarchy
TL;DR: In this paper , the influence of eddies on flow vertical structure as a function of underlying dynamical regime and grid resolution is investigated, and the authors find that the dominant trend in vertical structure is an increasing fraction of kinetic energy going into the barotropic mode, particularly its eddy component, as eddies are increasingly resolved.
Generative data-driven approaches for stochastic subgrid parameterizations in an idealized ocean model
TL;DR: In this paper , the authors proposed a generative adversarial network (GAN) and a variational autoencoder (VAE) model to predict subgrid forcing and its uncertainty.
Book ChapterDOI
Ocean Current Changes
TL;DR: In this article, the role of the ocean on climate and climate change is discussed in terms of the properties of oceans and tools available to oceanographers, with special reference to motivation, driving mechanisms, heat transport and the ocean's uptake of carbon and the ventilation of the deep ocean.

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.

Geophysical Fluid Dynamics
TL;DR: In this article, the authors propose a quasigeostrophic motion of a Stratified Fluid on a Sphere (SFL) on a sphere, which is based on an Inviscid Shallow-Water Theory.

Isopycnal mixing in ocean circulation models
TL;DR: In this paper, a subgrid-scale form for mesoscale eddy mixing on isopycnal surfaces is proposed for use in non-eddy-resolving ocean circulation models.

Geographical Variability of the First Baroclinic Rossby Radius of Deformation
TL;DR: In this paper, the first baroclinic gravity-wave phase speed c1 and the Rossby radius of deformation l1 are computed from climatological average temperature and salinity profiles.
