A Note on Modeling Mixing in Stably Stratified Flows
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: In a recent paper, Canuto et al. made a crucial contribution to modeling mixing in stably stratified flows by discovering that a modification to one of the closure constants can push the critical gradient Richardson number ...
Space–Time Wave Extremes: The Role of Metocean Forcings
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ave observations and modeling have recently demonstrated that wave extremes of short-crested seas are poorly predicted by statistics of time records. Indeed, the highest waves pertain to wave groups at focusing that have ...
Observation of Extreme Sea Waves in a Space–Time Ensemble
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: n this paper, an observational space?time ensemble of sea surface elevations is investigated in search of the highest waves of the sea state. Wave data were gathered by means of a stereo camera system, which was installed ...
Synthetic Modeling for an Acoustic Exploration System for Physical Oceanography
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: arine multichannel seismic (MCS) data, used to obtain structural reflection images of the earth?s subsurface, can also be used in physical oceanography exploration. This method provides vertical and lateral resolutions of ...
