Inertial and Turbulent Processes in the Iceland Basin: A Proposal to the Near Inertial Shear and Kinetic Energy in the North Atlantic Experiment (NISKINE) Departmental Research Initiative
Abstract
We propose a study of inertial processes in Icelandic Basin and their modification due to oceanic fronts. The University of Alaska Fairbanks (UAF) effort comprises the following:1. Run regional hindcast simulations of the Icelandic Basin using ROMS.2. Contribute instrumentation to a mooring program (costs limited to shipping costs to/fromScripps). Data will be jointly analyzed with a UA focus on model-data intercomparison andexploration of the dynamics using the model to contextualize data gathered from the field.3. Create and maintain a data archive in support of the project using Amazon Web Services (AWS)
