Parameterization of Small-Scale Processes

Abstract

These proceedings contain the lectures given at the fifth 'Aha Huliko' a Hawaiian Winter Workshop on the 'Parameterization of Small Scale Processes' and a summary of the workshop, which appeared in EOS (Transactions, American Geophysical Union). The lectures and the summary cover the major aspects and issues of representing subgrid-scale mixing processes in oceanic general circulation models. General circulation models; Eddy resolving models; Oceanography; Parameterization; Subgrid-scale processes; Parameter sensitivity; Mixing (Diapycnal, Isopycnal, Interior, Boundary); Diffusion; Stirring; Finestructure; Microstructure; Dissipation.
