abstract = "In this work was investigated the marine topography influence in
the Vit{\'o}ria eddy. The Vit{\'o}ria eddy was first described
in 1995 (Schmid et al., 1995), during an oceanographic cruise that
included Vit{\'o}ria-Trindade chain. Generally it is observed
about 100 Km offshore Vit{\'o}ria city with cyclonic vortices
characteristics and cold core. The study region is situated
10\˚S to 27\˚S latitude and 30\˚W to 50\˚W
longitude, including Caravelas city, in Northeast region until
Itaja{\'{\i}} in South region of Brazil coast (Southwest
Atlantic Bight). A coupled modeling system atmosphere and ocean,
that includes MM5 (Mesoscale Modelling System 5th Generation),
Princeton Ocean Model (POM) and auxiliary routines has been used
aiming to simulate the hydrodynamics of that area, using as
initial and boundary condition for ocean temperature, salinity and
horizontal velocity components, results obtained from Ocean Data
Assimilation (ODA) Experiment developed by the Geophysical Fluids
Dynamics Laboratory (GFDL) using the Modular Ocean Model (MOM).
The Global Forecast System Model (National Centers for
Environmental Prediction - NCEP) analysis has been used as initial
and boundary conditions, updated every six hours, in MM5. In order
to investigate the marine topography influence in the Vit{\'o}ria
eddy, the bathymetry has been changed, including a barrier between
two highs under ocean in Vit{\'o}ria-Trindade chain. Results were
obtained both for marine topography changed and not changed.
Differences found have shown that are some influence from
topography in the ocean circulation, mostly related to eddy
formation, in the Vit{\'o}ria Trindade chain. Observations
collected near this area were used to compare to model results.",
