Hybrid Coordinate Ocean Model (HYCOM) output from 2 forced regional simulations of the Agulhas Current. The first experiment is forced by absolute winds, the second experiment is forced by relative winds (the wind speed relative to the current speed). Data uploaded here are the sea surface height and surface u and v velocities, for both experiments. This is weekly output from January 1993- December 2013 at 1/10°. Also uploaded is a vertical section of the HYCOM output along the ACT transect in the Agulhas Current (~33.4°S at the coast and extending 300km offshore) for both experiments from 2010- 2013. For more information on the data please refer to "L. Braby, Backeberg, B., Krug M. and Reason C. (in prep), Quantifying the impact of wind-current feedback on mesoscale variability in forced simulation experiments of the Agulhas Current using an eddy tracking algorithm."
