Twenty Years of Eddies in the Alaska Coastal Current Albert J. Hermann Joint Institute for the Study of the Atmosphere and the Oceans, UW/NOAA/PMEL, 7600 Sand Point Way NE, Seattle, WA 98115) Phyllis J. Stabeno (PMEL) Michael Spillane (JISAO/NOAA/PMEL) The Problem Large interannual variability observed in the structure of the Alaska Coastal Current (ACC) and associated fish stocks Eddy statistics in the ACC (number, size, strength) affect larval paths and may affect subsequent recruitment Can Lagrangian/Eulerian eddy statistics of the ACC be predicted by wind and buoyancy forcing? Approach Use primitive equation model developed for the ACC in the northern Gulf of Alaska Run the model for 20 hindcast years (1978-1998) Look for relations between forcing and mesoscale response in model output Outline Overview of the region Mesoscale physics (baroclinic instability) Overview of the model Model hindcasts Eulerian/Lagangian Statistics Comparisons with forcing Overview of Area Two major currents: Alaskan Stream and Alaska Coastal Current ACC forced by downwelling-favorable winds and distributed runoff Baroclinic Instability in the ACC The Circulation Model Semispectral Primitive Equation Model (SPEM) 4 km average resolution Forced by local winds and upstream runoff Validated with current meter and drifter data (Stabeno and Hermann, 1996) Hindcast Movies Statistical Analysis (Eulerian) Calculate bandpass-filtered barotropic streamfunction in the sea valley to reveal mesoscale features Spatial variance of this filtered value is our Eulerian measure of EKE Statistical Analyses (Lagrangian) Release 100 floats in Shelikof Strait at 40 m depth in mid-May; track in three dimensions Compute positions over time and subsequently calculate: Centroid of positions: C = x(t),y(t) , = ensemble average Dispersion about the centroid D = {x(t)-x(t)}2 + {y(t)-y(t)}2 Lagrangian decorrelation time of cross-shelf velocity R(t) = [v’(t)v’(t- t)]/[v’(t)v’(t)], [] = time average
