A LARGE SPECTRUM OF FREE OSCILLATIONS OF THE WO...

The ocean tides are the most prominent forced oscillations in the global ocean. Recent research
showed that tides play an important role for the earth's climate system and they are of
considerable interest for the post-processing of satellite data. To understand these
oscillations it is substantial to determine and analyse the free oscillations  which describe
the oscillation behaviour of the global ocean. A highly efficient ocean model is developed to
compute these free oscillations with explicit consideration of dissipative terms and the full
ocean loading and self-attraction (LSA). The obtained spectrum of free oscillations enables
e.g. an detailed analyses of the LSA effect on tides  the synthesis of tides by free
oscillations and to show the existence of six long period planetary vorticity modes.
