Transient moist baroclinic instability
The non-modal transient properties of the Eady baroclinic model with a simple heating parameterization are examined. The time-dependent non-modal behavior of the moist baroclinic model is investigated by calculating the energy amplification of optimal perturbations for relevant time-scales and by calculating the energy evolution of random initial conditions. Enhanced non-modal growth on time-sc...
متن کاملBaroclinic Instability and Loss of Balance
Under the influences of stable density stratification and Earth’s rotation, large-scale flows in the ocean and atmosphere have a mainly balanced dynamics— sometimes called the slow manifold—in the sense that there are diagnostic hydrostatic and gradient-wind momentum balances that constrain the fluid acceleration. The nonlinear Balance Equations are a widely successful, approximate model for th...
متن کاملOccurrence and air-sea exchange of phthalates in the Arctic.
Air and seawater samples were taken simultaneously to investigate the distribution and air-sea gas exchange of phthalates in the Arctic onboard the German Research Ship FS Polarstern. Samples were collected on expeditions ARK XX1&2 from the North Sea to the high Arctic (60 degrees N-85 degrees N) in the summer of 2004. The concentration of sigma6 phthalates (dimethyl phthalate (DMP), diethyl ph...
متن کاملThe nonlinear downstream development of baroclinic instability
The downstream development in both space and time of baroclinic instability is studied in a nonlinear channel model on the f -plane. The model allows the development of the instability to be expressed on space and time scales that are long compared to the growth rates and wavelengths of the most unstable wave. The unstable system is forced by time-varying boundary conditions at the origin of th...
متن کاملAdvances in quantifying air-sea gas exchange and environmental forcing.
The past decade has seen a substantial amount of research on air-sea gas exchange and its environmental controls. These studies have significantly advanced the understanding of processes that control gas transfer, led to higher quality field measurements, and improved estimates of the flux of climate-relevant gases between the ocean and atmosphere. This review discusses the fundamental principl...
