| Zusammenfassung |
| A fine-resolution primitive equation
numerical model is constructed for the Iberian continental shelf and slope
region, with open boundaries to the north, south and west. The model is forced
by climatological wind fields and relaxed at the surface to climatological
temperature and salinity fields. A series of numerical experiments is conducted
to investigate the influence of the open boundary conditions. The numerical
results include coastal upwelling in summer and a poleward current in winter.
The effects of advection of Mediterranean Water and eastern North Atlantic
Central Water feature in the circulation. Qualitative comparisons are made with
observations. |
