Barotropic Beta-Plane Turbulence in a Regime with Strong Zonal Jets Revisited
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The problem of quantification of barotropic beta-plane turbulence driven by small-scale stochastic forcing into regimes dominated by quasi-periodic zonal jets is revisited. It is shown that the large-scale relative vorticity ...
Comparison of the Effect of Parameterized Eddy Fluxes of Thickness and Potential Vorticity
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: arameterization of mesoscale eddies is an important problem of modern ocean dynamics and modeling. The most widely used scheme is the so-called Gent?McWilliams parameterization, which describes the eddy-induced transport ...
Integral Constraints for Momentum and Energy in Zonal Flows with Parameterized Potential Vorticity Fluxes: Governing Parameters
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ntegral constraints for momentum and energy impose restrictions on parameterizations of eddy potential vorticity (PV) fluxes. The impact of these constraints is studied for a wind-forced quasigeostrophic two-layer zonal ...
Equilibration and Lateral Spreading of a Strip-Shaped Convective Region
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The authors investigate the spreading stage of the deep ocean convection for a strip-shaped convective region to study the law of spreading and sensitivity of the eddy exchange efficiency parameter to the shape of the ...
The Benefits of Global High Resolution for Climate Simulation: Process Understanding and the Enabling of Stakeholder Decisions at the Regional Scale
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThe time scales of the Paris Climate Agreement indicate urgent action is required on climate policies over the next few decades, in order to avoid the worst risks posed by climate change. On these relatively short ...
