The Oceanic Eddy Heat Transport
The rectified eddy heat transport is calculated from a global high resolution ocean general circulation model. The eddy heat transport is found to be strong in the western boundary currents, the Antarctic Circumpolar Current, and the equatorial region. It is generally weak in the central gyres. It i...
