Properties and circulation on a North Atlantic and Arctic Oceans' dense isopycnal layer
The animation shows water temperature, velocity magnitude and salinity on the potential density surface σ3= 41.34 kg m-3 during year 2007 from a MITgcm 4-km resolution ocean simulation. The density surface abruptly changes depth east and west of Greenland ...
This 6-months particle trajectories visualization depicts the salinity of the North Atlantic surface currents. The particles were generated at 20m depth with the 4km MITgcm model and their lifetime in the animation is 5 days.
We developed a visualization component in collaboration with the "Numerical Methods in Geosciences" group. The CF-conventions allow storing unstructured data defined at a series of points. However, it is often necessary to have additional information about the topology ...
