Descripion

Two Matlab algorithms are presented to compute the Ocean Heat Content by the trapezoidal method, using the variable specific heat and density at the ocean surface. One of the algorithms allows computing the Ocean Heat Content through a fractional order integral.

  • Algorithm 1: Computes Ocean Heat Content using a fractional order integral.

  • Algorithm 2: Computes Ocean Heat Content

Algorithms description

Algorithm 1: Computes Ocean Heat Content using a fractional order integral.

OHC = FractionalOrderIntegralHeatContent(Alpha, Temperature, Depth, UpperLimit, LowerLimit, Cp, Rho0)

Input parameters:

Alpha is the order of the fractional integral, Alpha must tend to one (Alpha -> 1)

UpperLimit is the upper limit of the integral in meters (depth of the surface layer of the ocean), UpperLimit > 0

LowerLimit is the lower limit of the integral in meters (depth of the layer for which the OHC is to be computed), LowerLimit > 0

Cp is the specific heat in J / (Kg °C) or J / (Kg K) J / (Kg °C) and J / (Kg K) are the same units but with different origins in temperature

Rho0 is the density of the sea surface in kg / m3

Temperature is the potential temperature in °C or K

Depth is the depth in meters (Depth > 0)

Output parameters:

OHC is the Oceanic Heat Content in J / m2

Algorithm 2: Computes Ocean Heat Content

OHC = CalculateHeatContent(Temperature, Depth, UpperLimit, LowerLimit, Cp, Rho0)

Input parameters:

UpperLimit is the upper limit of the integral in meters (depth of the surface layer of the ocean), UpperLimit > 0

LowerLimit is the lower limit of the integral in meters (depth of the layer for which the OHC is to be computed), LowerLimit > 0

Cp is the specific heat in J / (Kg °C) or J / (Kg K) J / (Kg °C) and J / (Kg K) are the same units but with different origins in temperature

Rho0 is the density of the sea surface in kg / m3

Temperature is the potential temperature in °C

Depth is the depth in meters (Depth > 0)

Output parameters:

OHC is the Oceanic Heat Content in J / m2
