Feature-oriented regional modeling of oceanic fronts
This paper outlines some important aspects of modeling oceanic fronts in the context of featureoriented regional modeling for the deep sea and the Global Coastal Ocean. Previously developed forms of feature models for different types of fronts are presented in a generalized approach. The large-scale meandering frontal systems such as the Gulf Stream, Kuroshio and Brazil current can be represent...
متن کاملOceanic wave-balanced surface fronts and filaments
A geostrophic, hydrostatic, frontal or filamentary flow adjusts conservatively to accommodate a surface gravity wave field with wave-averaged, Stokes-drift vortex and Coriolis forces in an altered balanced state. In this altered state, the wave-balanced perturbations have an opposite cross-front symmetry to the original geostrophic state; e.g. the along-front flow perturbation is odd-symmetric ...
متن کاملDelicacy, Imprecision, and Uncertainty of Oceanic Simulations: An Investigation with the Regional Oceanic Modeling System (ROMS)
In this project our long-term goal is to determine the ways and degrees to which realistically complex oceanic and atmospheric simulation models have an irreducible imprecision, hence an irreducible uncertainty in their analysis and forecast products. This goal is a natural accompaniment to the goal of continuing the evolution of the Regional Oceanic Modeling System (ROMS) as a multi-scale, mul...
متن کاملSubmesoscale Flows and Mixing in the Oceanic Surface Layer Using the Regional Oceanic Modeling System (ROMS)
The long-term goals of this project are to further the insight into the dynamics of submesoscale flow in the oceanic surface layer. Using the Regional Oceanic Modeling System (ROMS), we aim to understand the impact of submesoscale processes on tracer mixing at small scales and the transfer of energy towards the dissipative scales of non-geostrophic turbulence. An advanced understanding of surfa...
متن کاملModeling Interactions in Feature Oriented Software Designs1
Feature Oriented Programming (FOP) is a general theory of software development where programs are assembled by composing feature modules. A feature X interacts structurally with another feature Y by changing Y’s source code. We advance FOP by proposing an algebraic theory of structural feature interactions that models feature interactions as derivatives. We use our theory to show how a legacy J...
