摘要

Abstract

Effect of mesoscale wind stress-SST coupling on the Kuroshio extension jet is studied using the Regional Ocean Modeling System. The mesoscale wind stress perturbation (

) is diagnostically determined from modelled mesoscale SST perturbation (SST

) by using their empirical relationship derived from corresponding observation. From comparing two experiments with and without the

feedback

it is found that the interactively represented

-SST

coupling can modulate the kinetic energy along the Kuroshio extension jet

with little effect on the Kuroshio pathway. Similar results are also obtained in three additional sensitivity experiments

which consider half strength of the

and the momentum flux and heat flux effect induced by

respectively. That means simply taking into account the

-SST

coupling has little effect on improving the simulation of the Kuroshio Current system.
