F-4 Functional Modernization
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Evolving aircraft and engine technologies, as well as advancements in avionics, have resulted in a new generation of fighter aircraft. In order for an air force to remain survivable in such ...
The Linear Stability of Time-Dependent Baroclinic Shear
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This article aims to advance the understanding of inherent randomness in geophysical fluids by considering the particular example of baroclinic shear flows that are spatially uniform in the horizontal directions and aperiodic ...
Can Long Meridional Length Scales Yield Faster Rossby Waves?
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: There is much interest in better understanding the westward-propagating subinertial signal in the ocean basins because it influences many aspects of the ocean?s circulation. One explanation for the origin of this signal ...
On the Existence of Solitary Wave Solutions to the Shallow-Water Equations on the f Plane
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: In a recent paper Li argued that the inviscid shallow-water equations on the f plane exhibit a class of zonally propagating solitary wave solutions, referred to by the author as ?geosolitary waves.? These solutions have ...
Closure to “Importance of Tail Dependence in Bivariate Frequency Analysis” by Annie Poulin, David Huard, Anne-Catherine Favre, and Stéphane Pugin
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
On “A Consistent Theory for Linear Waves of the Shallow-Water Equations on a Rotating Plane in Midlatitudes”
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Recently, Paldor et al. provided a consistent and unified theory for Kelvin, Poincaré (inertial?gravity), and Rossby waves in the rotating shallow-water equations (SWE). Unfortunately, the article has some errors, and the ...
The Influence of Stratification on the Instabilities in an Idealized Two-Layer Ocean Model
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: his work investigates the instability of a two-layer Bickley jet in the context of the rotating shallow water (RSW) model. This provides a general context in which the instability of oceanographic jets with simple ...
The Nonlinear Evolution of Barotropically Unstable Jets
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The instability of jets in the context of the shallow-water model for both quasigeostrophic (QG) and non-QG parameters is studied. First, the linear stability problem is solved for a wide range of Rossby and Froude numbers ...
The Influence of Topography on the Stability of Jets
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: In this article, the effect shelflike topography has on the stability of a jet that flows along the smooth shelf is addressed. The linear stability problem is solved to determine for which nondimensional parameters a shelf ...
Energy Spectra and Vorticity Dynamics in a Two-Layer Shallow Water Ocean Model
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The dynamically adaptive WAVETRISK-OCEAN global model is used to solve one- and two-layer shallow water ocean models of wind-driven western boundary current (WBC) turbulence. When the submesoscale is resolved, both the ...
