Figure 6: The approximate numerical errors at one snapshot of a. Kuroshio model run. The region in red indicates that large numerical errors are commited in this region.
5 Conclusion
We have introduced three possible applications of wavelet analysis to the field of oceanography, and we believe that these applications are more than trivial but will be an important contribution to the field.
