For example, with the Boussinesq approximation the dependence of the EoS on the pressure, p, must be through the term p = -rhoConst*gravity*z, not the in situ pressure. If the actual in situ pressure is used in a Boussinesq model, then there is an inconsistent energy budget. </div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">This is explained in detail in the attached paper. If you are using an incompressible, Boussinesq model use JMD95Z, not JMD95P.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Cheers,</div><div class=""><div class="">
