Oceanic Energy Cascade to Global from Regional Predictive Models

Abstract

The long-term scientific goals of this research project were: i. Examine how energy is transferred across scales in the Western Tropical Pacific ii. Examine how topography influences the NECC and its influence on the energy transfer iii. Using advanced state-estimation techniques identify the energy inputs and how they propagate out to large-scale models
