Simulation of CFC-11 Distribution Based on the Global Oceanic Carbon Cycle Model MOM4 L40 and an Assessment of its Ventilation Capability
Description: CFC-11 is an important tool used to assess oceanic cycle models. The CFC-11 which is dissolved in seawater can be used to analyze the ventilation of the oceans. In this study, a tracer CFC-11 module was developed based on the global oceanic carbon cycle circulation model MOM4 L40. Then, the model was employed to study the distribution of CFC-11 in the global oceans, and also to assess the model's ventilation capacity. [Source: Chinese Journal of Geophysics]
