摘要

Abstract

Results of numerical simulation of currents in the western North Tropical Pacific Ocean by using a barotropic primitive equation model with fine horizontal resolution agreed well with observations and showed that the Mindanao Cyclonic Eddy located north of the equator and east of Mindanao Island exists during most of the year with monthly (and large seasonal) variations in scope

strength and central location. In June

an anticyclonic eddy occurs northeast of Halmahera Island

strength-circulation systems such as the North Equatorial Current

the Mindanao Current and the North Equatorial Countercurrent are all very well reproduced in the simulations.
