Southern Ocean along 110E and 140E: Evaluation for 2023 Marginal Ice Zone Voyage

A collaborative project to evaluate the Southern Ocean along 110E and 140E: the possible cruise lines for the MIZ 2023 research cruise. All are welcome to work on analysis scripts together, suggest new analysis directions, discuss figures etc. The initial focus may be on the ACCESS-OM2-01 JRA IAF simulations.

How it works

All aspects of the project will be tracked through issues. Create an issue to represent each small task. Issues will develop to include discussion of analysis methods and figures associated with each task.

The Project/analysis Overview lists all the analysis tasks (as detailed in the issues) at various stages.

To start contributing to the code, make your own branch directly in this repository, edit away on your branch, and then submit pull requests between your branch and the master branch.

miz2023voyage's Issues

Plot zonal and meridional currents

Evaluate Sept/Oct variability within cycle 3, and across cycles 1-3

Salt along 110E in ACCESS-OM2-01 model

ACCESS-OM2-01 IAF cycle 3, Jan mean Salt from 2008-2019, relative to cycle 1 Jan 1958 initial conditions from WOA

Get WOA13 data for recent decade

Look at IAF temp and salt anomalies relative to recent decade of WOA obs (not model initial conditons).

Figure out the crazy WOA filename structure. Download temp and salt data for recent decade. Convert temp to conservative and interpolate onto model grid.
