Cessi on the global oceanic circulation, with special emphasis on
exchanges between large-scale basins, and in particular between
the Indo-Pacific and the Atlantic. The approach is to use a range
of models (conceptual box models, primitive-equations computations
in simplified geometries) and data sets such as ECCO version 4, to
understand the mass, temperature and salinity interbasin exchanges
involved in the global overturning circulation.<br class="">
