  • Surface circulation in the Gulf of Trieste (northern Adriatic Sea) from radar, model, and ADCP comparisons
    Cosoli, Simone ...
    High resolution High Frequency (HF) radar observations of surface currents in the Gulf of Trieste (GoT) are presented and compared to moored subsurface current measurements and to high-resolution ... simulations from the Northern Adriatic Princeton Ocean Model (NAPOM) oceanographic model. Dominant circulation modes of the GoT were resolved and numerical model capabilities inreconstructing them were assessed. The time frame covers March 2011 through October 2012. NAPOM reconstructs the dominant surface circulation features observed by the radar, such as the general basin-wide cyclonic circulation scheme and the coastal jet outflowing the GoT, but is in general less energetic than radar currents. Comparisons between radar, ADCP and model currents suggest that the model underestimates originate within the low-frequency, diurnal, semidiurnal and inertial bands, and that both radar and model currents do not reproduce the diurnal tidal ellipse structure observed by the ADCP.
