Abstract: If a current is composed of a number of constituents with different frequencies, then quadratic friction may be analyzed at the same frequencies. The ratios of the constituents of the friction differ from the ratios for ...

Abstract: The dependence of mixing efficiency on time-varying forcing is studied by direct numerical simulation (DNS) of Kelvin?Helmholtz (KH) instability. Time-dependent forcing fields are designed to reproduce a wavelike oscillation ...

Abstract: emporal variability of the winter input of wind energy flux (wind power) and its relationship to internal wave fields were examined in the North Pacific. The dominant long-term variability of the wind power input, estimated ...

Abstract: Microstructure measurements were made in the Mixed Water Region of the Oyashio/Kuroshio/Tsugaru currents system where both turbulence and double diffusion are involved in mixing. While intense turbulence is observed near ...
