abstract = "The Miami Isopycnic Coordinate Ocean Model (MICOM) was used to
study the sea surface elevation variability in the Southwestern
Atlantic, caused by internal mechanisms (basically eddies
influence) and by an atmospheric cyclone passage over the ocean.
Considering the variability due to internal mechanisms, in the
Brazil-Malvinas Confluence zone, the displacement of the zero
elevation line (the approximated confluence position) reached over
2.5 latitude degrees, caused mainly by eddy activity. Considering
the effects due to atmospheric cyclones passage, two experiments
were carried out, the first one with a 5 degree radius cyclone and
the other one considering a cyclone with a half of this radius.
The smaller cyclone perturbs a smaller area, but this perturbation
last much longer than those produced by the large one. The waves
generated in the adjustment process propagate energy to the west,
and it can be seen that part of this energy is trapped near the
continent when waves reflect on the coast, an additional energy
input to the confluence variability.",
