An Exact Energy for TRM Theory
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A time residual mean (TRM) energy is obtained by averaging a transformation of the energy of the Boussinesq hydrostatic incompressible equations of motion. The transformation is the fundamental TRM transformation between ...
Horizontal Energy Flux of Wind-Driven Intraseasonal Waves in the Tropical Atlantic by a Unified Diagnosis
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Interpreting Negative IOD Events Based on the Transfer Routes of Wave Energy in the Upper Ocean
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Energetics of the Global Ocean: The Role of Layer-Thickness Form Drag
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Understanding the role of mesoscale eddies in the global ocean is fundamental to gaining insight into the factors that control the strength of the circulation. This paper presents results of an analysis of a high-resolution ...
The Vertical Structure of the Surface Wave Radiation Stress for Circulation over a Sloping Bottom as Given by Thickness-Weighted-Mean Theory
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: revious attempts to derive the depth-dependent expression of the radiation stress have led to a debate concerning (i) the applicability of the Mellor approach to a sloping bottom, (ii) the introduction of the delta function ...
A New Expression for the Form Stress Term in the Vertically Lagrangian Mean Framework for the Effect of Surface Waves on the Upper-Ocean Circulation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: here is an ongoing discussion in the community concerning the wave-averaged momentum equations in the hybrid vertically Lagrangian and horizontally Eulerian (VL) framework and, in particular, the form stress term (representing ...
Thickness-Weighted Mean Theory for the Effect of Surface Gravity Waves on Mean Flows in the Upper Ocean
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he residual effect of surface gravity waves on mean flows in the upper ocean is investigated using thickness-weighted mean (TWM) theory applied in a vertically Lagrangian and horizontally Eulerian coordinate system. ...
A Divergence-Form Wave-Induced Pressure Inherent in the Extension of the Eliassen–Palm Theory to a Three-Dimensional Framework for All Waves at All Latitudes
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: lassical theory concerning the Eliassen?Palm relation is extended in this study to allow for a unified treatment of midlatitude inertia?gravity waves (MIGWs), midlatitude Rossby waves (MRWs), and equatorial waves (EQWs). ...
The Energy Flux of Three-Dimensional Waves in the Atmosphere: Exact Expression for a Basic Model Diagnosis with No Equatorial Gap
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Energy Flow Diagnosis of ENSO from an Ocean Reanalysis
