Abstract:
A three-dimensional numerical model for upwelling has been developed and tested
under various boundary conditions. Gridsize and bottom topography are variable;
the driving force is windstress. A version o f the model was applied to data from the
“ Upwelling 75” experim ent. Certain wind-induced events observed in the data are
reproduced reasonably well, although wind input is done by m eans of linear approx
imation. Typical upwelling conditions can be achieved and the influence of bottom
topography can be shown.
