A stable implementation of a data-driven scale-aware mesoscale parameterization

Pavel Perezhogin, Cheng Zhang, Alistair Adcroft +2

Ocean mesoscale eddies are often poorly represented in climate models, and therefore, their effects on the large scale circulation must be parameterized. Traditional parameterizati…
