Abstract

The need fur higher grid resolution in climate models is often discussed (e.g. McAvaney et al.,2001) because a number of important oceanic processes are not resolved by the current generation of coupled models, e.g., boundary currents, mesoscale eddy fluxes, sill through flows. McClean et al., (1997) and Bryan and Smith (1998) have compared simulated mesoscale variability in simulations at several eddy-resolving resolutions to TOPEX/Poseidon and similar data. (omitted)
