Role of Surface Gravity Waves in Aquaplanet Ocean Climates
Abstract We present a set of idealized numerical experiments of a solstitial aquaplanet ocean and examine the thermodynamic and dynamic implications of surface gravity waves (SGWs) upon its mean state. The aquaplanet's oceanic circulation is dominated by an equatorial zonal jet and four Ekman d...
