<h4>Project Description</h4> |

|
|
Eddying solutions from ECCO2 experiments are being used by members of the |

|
|
"http://cpt-emilie.org">Climate Process Team on Eddy Mixed Layer Interactions |
| 157 |
|
|
</a> |
| 158 |
|
|
to diagnose fluxes of heat and buoyancy |
| 159 |
|
|
due to eddy processes in the global oceans. Results (such as |
| 160 |
|
|
the diagnosed eddy heat and temperature transports shown in the figures below) |
| 161 |
|
|
are being compared against observations, theoretical models and against very |
| 162 |
|
|
high-resolution process models. This work is leading to a more complete |
| 163 |
|
|
understanding of the role ocean eddies and mixed-layer processes play in |
| 164 |
|
|
setting the global ocean state. <br> |
