Parameterizing the Impact of Unresolved Temperature Variability on the Large‐Scale Density Field: 2. Modeling
Abstract Ocean circulation models have systematic errors in large‐scale horizontal density gradients due to estimating the grid‐cell‐mean density by applying the nonlinear seawater equation of state to the grid‐cell‐mean water properties. In frontal regions where unresolved subgrid‐scale (SGS) fluct...
