Ocean Circulation Kinetic Energy: Reservoirs, Sources, and Sinks (2009, result): “These and similar calculations likely have significant positive biases: Dewar and Flierl (1987), Cornillon and Park (2001), Chelton et al. (2004), Dawe and Thompson (2006), Duhaut and Straub (2006), Zhai and Greatbatch (2007), Hughes and Wilson (2007) demonstrate that τ in Eq.”
Satellite Observations of Mesoscale Eddy-Induced Ekman Pumping (2015, background): “…04/12/22 07:20 AM UTC computing the surface stress from the relative vector wind defined by (3) that includes the influence of surface ocean currents (e.g., Duhaut and Straub 2006; Zhai and Greatbatch 2007; Eden and Dietze 2009; Hutchinson et al. 2010; McClean et al. 2011; Anderson et al. 2011).”
Modulation of Wind-Work by Oceanic Current Interaction with the Atmosphere (2016, background): “Some work shows that the current effect on the 68 surface stress can lead to a reduction of the EKE of the ocean via a ”mechanical damping” 69 (Duhaut and Straub 2006; Dewar and Flierl 1987; Dawe and Thompson 2006; Hughes and 70 Wilson 2008; Eden and Dietze 2009) and hence a reduction of the wind wo”
