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 ...
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 ...
Third-Order Transport and Nonlocal Turbulence Closures for Convective Boundary Layers
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The turbulence closure problem for convective boundary layers is considered with the chief aim to advance the understanding and modeling of nonlocal transport due to large-scale semiorganized structures. The key role here ...
