| Abstract: |
| Observations show that there exist surprisingly energetic deep equatorial jets of alternating eastward and westward zonal currents between 1000 - 3 000 meters (Luyten et al., 1980; Leetmaa et al., 1981; Eriksen, 1981). A linear, continuously vertically stratified dynamic model of the equatorial ocean is used to investigate the major features of these jets in this paper. The model is driven by an idealized off-equatorial deep buoyancy oscillation. The results show that the establishment process of the deep equatorial circulation forced by the water production in a shallow water dynamic ocean model is equavelent to that represented by a single mode in a linear continously vertically stratified ocean dynamic model forced by the deep buoyancy forcing. The analytic solution shows that the decay effect of the vertical mixing on. the vertical modes is inversely proportional to the third power of the vertical mode number. It is also clear from the solution that for the given parameters determining the wave number, the horizontal scale in the x-direction of the buoyancy forcing has a significant effect on the vertical structure and velocity magnitude of the deep equatorial jets. Under the conditions of this paper, when the horizontal scale in the X-direction of the buoyancy forcing is less than 2 000 km, the simulated deep jets have structures similar to those observed. |
