The model employs dynamics linearised about a state of rest and incorporates realistic bottom topography. It is driven by the seasonally varying part of the Hellerman and Rosenstein wind stress field and by inflow along the northern and eastern boundaries specified from a 1°×1° version of the model applied to the whole North Pacific. The model-calculated transport variations through the Tokara Strait are similar to those of the observed seasonal sea level differences across the Strait, although the model appears to underestimate the amplitude of the signal by a factor of at least 2. The inclusion of realistic bottom topography is shown to be crucial in determining the model response. the Oceanographical Society of Japan, 1989 Greatbatch Richard Department of Physics and Ocean Science Centre, Memorial University of Newfoundland, A1B 3X7, St. John's, Newfoundland, Canada aut Goulding Allan Department of Physics and Ocean Science Centre, Memorial University of Newfoundland, A1B 3X7, St. John's, Newfoundland, Canada aut Journal of the Oceanographical Society of Japan Kluwer Academic Publishers 46/1(1990-02-01), 9-20 0029-8131 46:1<9 1990 46 10872 https://doi.org/10.1007/BF02334220 text/html Onlinezugriff via DOI 1 research-article jats NATIONALLICENCE 856 40 https://doi.org/10.1007/BF02334220 text/html Onlinezugriff via DOI NATIONALLICENCE 700 1- Greatbatch Richard Department of Physics and Ocean Science Centre, Memorial University of Newfoundland, A1B 3X7, St. John's, Newfoundland, Canada aut NATIONALLICENCE 700 1- Goulding Allan Department of Physics and Ocean Science Centre, Memorial University of Newfoundland, A1B 3X7, St. John's, Newfoundland, Canada aut NATIONALLICENCE 773 0- Journal of the Oceanographical Society of Japan Kluwer Academic Publishers 46/1(1990-02-01), 9-20 0029-8131 46:1<9 1990 46 10872 Metadata rights reserved Springer special CC-BY-NC licence nationallicence BK010053 XK010053 XK010000 NATIONALLICENCE NATIONALLICENCE NL-springer
