Amplification of the divergent component from balanced motions and forward kinetic energy cascade in an ocean-atmosphere simulation

<p>This dataset contains animations of:</p> <ol> <li> <p>The temporal evolution of ocean currents partitioned into balanced motions (BMs) and non-BMs (including internal gravity waves and low-frequency wind-driven currents), displayed in the physical domain for COAS (top row) and Ocean-forced (bottom row). Both simulations illustrate kinetic energy (KE) together with velocity gradients&mdash;vorticity ($\zeta$) and horizontal divergence ($\delta$)&mdash;all normalized by the Coriolis frequency.</p> </li> <li> <p>The temporal evolution of low-frequency (lf) and high-frequency (hf) non-BM currents in the physical domain for COAS (top row) and Ocean-forced (bottom row).</p> </li> </ol>
