Viewing profile — waterthrowaway

As a physical oceanographer, the destruction of these observing systems is horrific. It is hard to stress enough how intentionally OMB is trying to disassemble American science. Th…

I would be curious if you have any source for this. I spent about 30 minutes looking through google scholar looking for studies from the 1980s which included snow projections under…

KDE+arch works perfectly out of the box

This is really cool! Thank you for submitting it! It is worth noting this is for the purpose of video games or visual effects not for scientific/operational simulations of the ocea…

Rossby waves are fascinating waves in the earth's climate system that are not due to gravity like surface water waves but rather the rotation of the earth. They play a very importa…

In the field of Geophysical Fluid Dynamics it is an important distinction as there are other very important waves. Rossby waves are not gravity waves and extremely important to the…

In this case it seems ocean heat content is a depth integrated measure (see page 11 of this document I found by following links in the above article https://upper-ocean-dynamics.ea…

The AMOC is one of the most studied climate phenomenon. We have known for decades that with a large enough freshwater forcing in models you can shut it down. The question is how bi…

Quick clarification: the noise is applied as a perturbation of their model which is meant to tease out its response to high frequency variation in sst. It is not really a limitatio…

I believe noise here just refers to high frequency variation in atmospheric forcing. The ocean can be thought of as adding inertia to the climate system like a massive flywheel. Th…

If you are interested in the irreducible imprecision of climate models this paper is fun too https://www.pnas.org/content/104/21/8709

Hello! I’m a physical oceanographer which means my job is to figure out how the water moves and delivers heat through things like math and models. Paleoclimate isn’t my expertise b…
