'''Large eddy simulation of oceanic turbulence and its application to the parameterization of vertical mixing''' \\
Responsible: In-Soo Kang \\
Project type: Joint project with the [http://gfdl.yonsei.ac.kr/ Department of Atmospheric Sciences], Yonsei University, Seoul, Yign Noh (jointly funded  by [http://www.dfg.de DFG] and [http://www.nrf.go.kr/html/kr/ KOSEF]) \\
Duration: 01/05/2005 - 31/03/2007 \\\\
In this project, we will extend the PALM code to be able to simulate and reproduce the realistic turbulence structure of the ocean mixed layer (OML). Through PALM's results we can understand the processes of ocean mixed layer and ocean deep convection which plays an important role int the ocean circulation and  Carbon cycle process. It is used to verify and improve the parmeterization of the vertial mixing process of OGCM (Ocean Gerneral Circulation Model). This project results will contribute to the developement of the realistic OGCM that make better prediction of the ocean and climate.
