¥simulate basin-scale
circulation fields for the GLOBEC
decade of 1990-1999 using an eddy-resolving
ROMS model extended to include sea
ice and riverine inputs of fresh water
¥validate these simulations with a new assemblage of hydrographic data and the synthesis study for the decade by Hakkinen and Rhines (2004)
¥utilize a
10-component (lower trophic level) CoSINE
biogeochemical model to understand
the biophysical pathways connecting
the three Calanus gyres during 1990-1999
