Gravity Wave Instability Dynamics at High Reynolds Numbers. Part II: Turbulence Evolution, Structure, and Anisotropy
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This paper examines the character, intermittency, and anisotropy of turbulence accompanying wave instability, breaking, and turbulence evolution and decay for gravity waves (GW) having a high intrinsic frequency, amplitudes ...
Gravity Wave Instability Dynamics at High Reynolds Numbers. Part I: Wave Field Evolution at Large Amplitudes and High Frequencies
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Direct numerical simulations are employed to examine gravity wave instability dynamics at a high intrinsic frequency, wave amplitudes both above and below nominal convective instability, and a Reynolds number sufficiently ...
Numerical Modeling of Multiscale Dynamics at a High Reynolds Number: Instabilities, Turbulence, and an Assessment of Ozmidov and Thorpe Scales
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: high?Reynolds number direct numerical simulation (DNS) is employed to explore the instability and turbulence dynamics accompanying an idealized multiscale flow that approximates such environments observed throughout the ...
Fine Structure, Instabilities, and Turbulence in the Lower Atmosphere: High-Resolution In Situ Slant-Path Measurements with the DataHawk UAV and Comparisons with Numerical Modeling
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractA new platform for high-resolution in situ measurements in the lower troposphere is described and its capabilities are demonstrated. The platform is the small GPS-controlled DataHawk unmanned aerial system (UAS), ...
