Analysis systems for the mesoscale thermal variability in the Greenland Iceland Norwegian Sea

Abstract

Mesoscale thermal structure and its spatial variability are very significant for acoustic propagation in the ocean. Therefore ocean thermal analysis procedures are important for the initialization and verification of environmental and acoustical models. This study involved the implementation of software, and the production, from irregularly-spaced data, of uniformly-gridded temperature fields for use by numerical acoustical andenvironmental models.
