Dear Ocean Team,
I would like to determine the ocean bottom pressure, which is comparable to the variable “RHO_VINT” or “Vertical Integral of In-Situ Density”.
Now I would like to know if this vertical integral includes changes in the Sea Surface Height?
Or is it only the integral of the 60 vertical layers with fixed grid cell height?
In the second case the modeled ocean bottom pressure would be:
RHO_VINT + SSH*RHO(top layer)
in the first case the (SSH*RHO) would already be included in RHO_VINT. So what is the case?
Thank you for your help.
