Temporal and Horizontal Variability of SST Cooling in the Wake of a Hurricane
2012
Price, James F
This problem/phenomenon studied here, hurricane wake warming, can be viewed as a test case for warming the ocean surface generally. The key finding here is that the relevant heat flux is made up of two components: a slowly varying mean and the diurnally-varying heat flux, here represented by the noon maximum. The former determines the trend of surface temperature, and the latter determines the amplitude of the warming by setting the depth over which the mean heat flux is absorbed. The daily average heat flux alone is not sufficient to predict the depth over which the heat flux will be absorbed. This has direct implications for ocean modelling on synoptic and climate time scales.
