Modeling of residual currents in the Gulf of California using different grid sizes

The effect of the mesh size resolution to model residual currents produced by the tides (M2) in the Gulf of California was studied. The grid sizes used range from 14 x 14 to 2 x 2 km. The results show consistent tidal and residual currents among the different grids. In the northern gulf, a well-defi...

The grid sizes used range from 14 x 14 to 2 x 2 km. The results show consistent tidal and residual currents among the different grids. In the northern gulf, a well-defined circulation pattern, aligned with the isobaths, emerged. In the archipelago area, an anticyclonic eddy was found northwest of Tiburón Island. The rest of the gulf showed no appreciable residual circulation. Maximum modeled velocities of ~18 cm s–1 were found in the archipelago; the northern gulf velocities were of the order of 1 cm s–1. The 3 x 3 km grid was considered suitable to model the residual currents in the northern gulf. Se estudió el efecto del tamaño de malla en el modelado de las corrientes residuales producidas por la marea (M2) en el Golfo de California. Los tamaños de malla usados van desde 14 x 14 hasta 2 x 2 km. Los resultados muestran que el modelado de la marea y de las corrientes residuales fue consistente para las diferentes mallas. En el norte del golfo se obtuvo un patrón de circulación residual bien definido y alineado a las isóbatas, mientras que en el archipiélago se encontró un giro anticiclónico al noroeste de la Isla Tiburón. Para el resto del golfo no se presentó un patrón de circulación residual apreciable. Las velocidades máximas se obtuvieron en el archipiélago con magnitudes de hasta 18 cm s–1; en cambio, en la región norte, las magnitudes fueron del orden de 1 cm s–1. Finalmente, la malla de 3 x 3 km fue la más adecuada para modelar las corrientes residuales en el norte del golfo.  Iniversidad Autónoma de Baja California 1997-03-06 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Peer-reviewed Article Artículo Arbitrado application/pdf https://www.cienciasmarinas.com.mx/index.php/cmarinas/article/view/819 10.7773/cm.v23i4.819 Ciencias Marinas; Vol. 23 No. 4 (1997); 505-519 Ciencias Marinas; Vol. 23 Núm. 4 (1997); 505-519 2395-9053 0185-3880 eng https://www.cienciasmarinas.com.mx/index.php/cmarinas/article/view/819/744
