Estimating Eddy Stresses by Fitting Dynamics to Observations Using a Residual-Mean Ocean Circulation Model and Its Adjoint (2005, methodology): “Marshall and Radko (2003) present analytical models of the ACC in which there is a three-way balance between Coriolis torque (on the residual flow), eddy stresses, and wind stress, much like that observed in the optimized solution presented here.”
Eddy stirring in the Southern Ocean (2011, background): “[2001] and Olbers et al. [2004] provide reviews of the contemporary state of knowledge on the Southern Ocean circulation, its function in the global ocean, and its essential dynamics.”
Turning Ocean Mixing Upside Down (2015, unknown): “The parameterized baroclinic eddies drive an opposing thermally direct circulation with dense waters sinking at the southern edge of the channel and light waters rising at its northern edge (Marshall and Radko 2003).”
Parameterization of Eddy Fluxes near Oceanic Boundaries (2008, background): “Marshall (1997), Treguier et al. (1997), and Marshall and Radko (2003) assume that the eddy-induced mass exchange between the BL and the interior is continuous.”
The Role of Eddies in Determining the Structure and Response of the Wind-Driven Southern Hemisphere Overturning: Results from the Modeling Eddies in the Southern Ocean (MESO) Project (2006, background): “It has long been known that mesoscale eddies play an important role in the dynamics of this region (Johnson and Bryden 1989; Marshall et al. 1993; Killworth and Nanneh 1994; Marshall and Radko 2003).”
Radiation and Dissipation of Internal Waves Generated by Geostrophic Motions Impinging on Small-Scale Topography: Application to the Southern Ocean (2010, background): “Theories suggest that the upper cell is driven by atmospheric forcing at the surface with an adiabatic return flow at depth (Rintoul et al. 2001; Marshall and Radko 2003; Olbers et al. 2004).”
The Role of Poleward-Intensifying Winds on Southern Ocean Warming (2007, unknown): “Increased zonal wind stress tends to increase the depth of the thermocline across the ACC, whereas increased mesoscale eddy activity tends to decrease it [cf. Eq. (28) in Marshall and Radko 2003 ].”
Simulated changes in the extratropical Southern Hemisphere winds and currents (2006, background): “However, a simple theoretical argument based on residual-mean theory [Rintoul et al., 2001; Karsten et al., 2002; Marshall and Radko, 2003] can be made to suggest that strengthening and poleward shifting of the zonal wind stress over the Southern Ocean should result in strengthening and poleward shi”
On the Relationship between Southern Ocean Overturning and ACC Transport (2013, methodology): “We compare the modeled ACC sensitivity to the scaling theory of Olbers and Visbeck (2005), which is a modification of Marshall and Radko (2003), updated to include the effect of a nonzero residual overturning circulation on the prediction of ACC transport.”
Jets and Topography: Jet Transitions and the Impact on Transport in the Antarctic Circumpolar Current (2012, background): “Yet, navigation around steep and complicated bathymetric obstacles suggests that local dynamics may be far removed from those described by zonally symmetric models.”
Suppression of Eddy Diffusivity across Jets in the Southern Ocean (2010, methodology): “Our analysis focused on the Southern Ocean where cross-current eddy mixing plays a crucial role in driving the meridional overturning circulation (e.g., Marshall and Radko 2003) and the meridional heat transport (e.g., Keffer and Holloway 1988).”
The Role of Mesoscale Eddies in the Rectification of the Southern Ocean Response to Climate Change (2010, methodology): “Figure 2 shows the 5-yr time-averaged EKE on the surface geostrophic flow in CM2.”
The dynamical balance, transport and circulation of the Antarctic Circumpolar Current (2004, unknown): “We follow the concept presented in Olbers & Visbeck (2004) which extends the work of Marshall & Radko (2003) to a predictive model of the overturning.”
Estimates and Implications of Surface Eddy Diffusivity in the Southern Ocean Derived from Tracer Transport (2006, methodology): “As shown in Marshall (1997) and applied in Speer et al. (2000) and Marshall and Radko (2003), resz hs can be inferred from the buoyancy budget of the mixed layer; thus, resz hs B̃ by , 13 Fig 6 live 4/C where B̃ is the net buoyancy forcing of the mixed layer [including the contribution of diabatic…”
Observations, inferences, and mechanisms of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation: A review (2016, background): “…eddy fluxes largely compensate for the enhanced equatorward Ekman transport in the Southern Ocean BUCKLEY AND MARSHALL ATLANTIC MOC REVIEW 40 [Marshall and Radko, 2003; Abernathey et al., 2011], and hence, the response of the AMOC to Southern Ocean winds is relatively modest [Hallberg and…”
