spelling oai:open.uct.ac.za:11427/6466 An analysis of variability in the South Atlantic Colberg, Frank Reason, Chris Oceanography Word processed copy. Includes bibliographical references (leaves 167-181). In this thesis the variability of the South Atlantic climate is investigated. In order to account for both large and regional scales, two ocean models are applied. An ocean general circulation model, forced with the National Centre for Environmental Prediction / National Centre for Atmospheric Research reanalysis is used to investigate the South Atlantic leading modes and also investigate the South Atlantic response to El Niño-Southern Oscillation induced climate variability. A regional ocean model is used to investigate variability in the South East Atlantic., especially in the Angola Benguela Frontal Zone. 2014-08-13T19:48:34Z 2014-08-13T19:48:34Z 2006 Doctoral Thesis Doctoral PhD http://hdl.handle.net/11427/6466 eng application/pdf Department of Oceanography Faculty of Science University of Cape Town
