Observations of Near-Surface Oceanic Velocity Strain-Rate Variability during and after Storm Events
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: During August of 1977, a series of repeated profiles of the upper ocean were made at Ocean Station Papa (145°W, 50°N) with a velocity/temperature microstructure profiler. A strong correlation of wind-speed variations with ...
An Experimental Study of Turbulence Behind Towed Biplanar Grids in a Salt-Stratified Fluid
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Biplanar gods were towed down a 30 m long tank of stratified water at 10?60 cm s?1. Stratifications from N=0.2 to 0.5 rad s?1 were used. Single electrode conductivity probes repeatedly profiled the decaying turbulence at ...
Implications of Small-Scale Flow Features to Modeling Dispersion over Complex Terrain
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Small-scale, topographically forced wind systems often have a strong influence on flow over complex terrain. A problem is that these systems are very difficult to measure, because of their limited spatial and temporal ...
