The Role of Closed Gyres in Setting the Zonal Transport of the Antarctic Circumpolar Current
Eddy-permitting simulations are used to show that basinlike gyres can be observed in the large-scale barotropic flow of a wind-driven channel with a meridional topographic ridge. This is confirmed using both two-layer quasigeostrophic and 25-level primitive equation models at high horizontal resolut...
