A Model of Seasonal Variability in the Indonesian Archipelago

Abstract

The ultimate goal is to determine which of the straits and seas within the Indonesian archipelago needs to be included explicitly in the multi{level, finite{difference, ocean general circulation models (GCMs) used in forecasting, and which can be grouped together, so making them easily represented by finite{difference grids of cost-effective resolution. Making the determination requires a detailed understanding of observations and development of new
