Accelerated simulation of passive tracers in ocean circulation models (2003, background): “Adjoint tracer transport: The adjoint to the tracer equation is required in many applications (e.g., Holzer and Hall, 2000).”
Characterizing Transport between the Surface Mixed Layer and the Ocean Interior with a Forward and Adjoint Global Ocean Transport Model (2005, background): “…ts and subsequently untagged when they make their next contact with the surface. b. First-passage time problem formulation for a stationary flow Holzer and Hall (2000) also show that the joint probability density, F(xs, fp |x), for the first-contact position xs and first-passage time fp to can…”
A comparison of the lower stratospheric age spectra derived from a general circulation model and two data assimilation systems (2002, methodology): “Thus the pulse gas release method of computing the age spectrum becomes increasingly inaccurate away from the source region for a non-stationary flow [Holzer and Hall, 2000].”
Relationships among tracer ages (2003, background): “Note that we have assumed steady state conditions and spatially uniform surface conditions, but time-dependent flows and nonuniform surface conditions can be accommodated [e.g., Holzer and Hall, 2000; Haine and Hall, 2002].”
