Package ``GMREDI'' implements an along isopycnal tensor for mixing tracers |
7 |
(see Oceanic isopycnal mixing by coordinate rotation, Redi, |
8 |
Journal of Physical Oceanography, 1982) and provides a parameterization of |
9 |
geostrophic eddies |
10 |
using the Gent-McWilliams (see Isopycnal mixing in ocean circulation |
11 |
models, Gent and McWilliams, Journal of Physical Oceanography, 1995) scheme. |
12 |
Either the bolus transport or skew flux forms of the Gent-McWilliams scheme |
13 |
can be selected as well as a variety of different tapering algorithms. |
