A Mathematical Model for Indian Ocean Circulation in Spherical Coordinate

In recent years, the Indian Ocean (IO) has been discovered to have a much larger impact on climate variability than previously thought. This paper reviews processes in which the IO is, or appears to be, actively involved. We begin the mathematical model with a pattern for summer monsoon winds. Three dimensional temperature and velocity fields are calculated analytically for the ocean forced by ...

A Model of Narrative Circulation

This article suggests that narrative meaning structures have different modes of existence: the “told”, the “inner” and the “lived” modes. Their definitions and mutual relationships are presented in the form of a schematic model. The inner narrative represents the experiental mode of narrative form. It is an individual’s interpretation of his/her life, in which the past events, present situation...

A New Lagrangian Coastal Circulation Model

Superrotation in a Venus general circulation model

A super–rotating atmosphere with equatorial winds of ∼ 35m s is simulated using a simplified Venus General Circulation Model (GCM). The equatorial super-rotation in the model atmosphere is maintained by barotropic instabilities in the the mid–latitude jets which transport angular momentum towards the equator. The mid–latitude jets are maintained by the mean meridional circulation and the moment...

Hemodynamic performance of the Fontan circulation compared with a normal biventricular circulation: a computational model study.

The physiological limitations of the Fontan circulation have been extensively addressed in the literature. Many studies emphasized the importance of pulmonary vascular resistance in determining cardiac output (CO) but gave little attention to other cardiovascular properties that may play considerable roles as well. The present study was aimed to systemically investigate the effects of various c...
