¥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
