Large Eddy Simulations of a Stratified Shear Layer
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The performance of the large eddy simulation (LES) approach in predicting the evolution of a shear layer in the presence of stratification is evaluated. The LES uses a dynamic procedure to compute subgrid model coefficients ...
Interaction between upper-ocean submesoscale currents and convective turbulence
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Near-N Oscillations and Deep-Cycle Turbulence in an Upper-Equatorial Undercurrent Model
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: irect numerical simulation (DNS) is used to investigate the role of shear instabilities in turbulent mixing in a model of the upper Equatorial Undercurrent (EUC). The background flow consists of a westward-moving surface ...
Large-Eddy Simulation of Deep-Cycle Turbulence in an Equatorial Undercurrent Model
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ynamical processes leading to deep-cycle turbulence in the Equatorial Undercurrent (EUC) are investigated using a high-resolution large-eddy simulation (LES) model. Components of the model include a background flow similar ...
Deep-Cycle Turbulence in the Upper Pacific Equatorial Ocean: Characterization by LES and Heat Flux Parameterization
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Seasonality of Deep Cycle Turbulence in the Eastern Equatorial Pacific
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThe seasonal cycles of the various oceanic and atmospheric factors influencing the deep cycle of turbulence in the eastern Pacific cold tongue are explored. Moored observations at 140°W have shown seasonal variability ...
Second Moment Closure Modeling and Direct Numerical Simulation of Stratified Shear Layers
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Buoyant shear layers encountered in many engineering and environmental applications have been studied by researchers for decades. Often, these flows have high Reynolds and Richardson numbers, which leads to significant/intractable ...
A Finite-Time Ensemble Method for Mixed Layer Model Comparison
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
ASIRI: An Ocean–Atmosphere Initiative for Bay of Bengal
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ir?Sea Interactions in the Northern Indian Ocean (ASIRI) is an international research effort (2013?17) aimed at understanding and quantifying coupled atmosphere?ocean dynamics of the Bay of Bengal (BoB) with relevance to ...
