A Study of Wind Stress Effects on the Vertical Eddy Viscosity Coefficient Using the Ekman Model with Data Assimilation

The vertical eddy viscosity coefficient (VEVC) is an important parameter used in ocean dynamics studies to describe the intensity of mixing in the vertical direction and the process of momentum transport. In this paper, an adjoint assimilation method was used to invert the VEVC, based on the Ekman m...
