Mixing and diapycnal advection in the ocean
In the stratified ocean, vertical motions arise from both adiabatic and diabatic mechanisms. Diapycnal advection is the vertical component of flow across an isopycnal surface which occurs when mixing produces a divergent flux of buoyancy. Buoyancy forcing of the lateral flow by vortex stretching occurs when diapycnal advection rates vary with depth. Microstructure observations of enhanced turbu...
متن کاملTime and space scales of vertical mixing and advection of ’ phytoplankton in the upper ocean
The dependence of phytoplankton photosynthesis on light intensity may be altered by the range and frequency of variations in light intensity recentlv experienced by the organisms. A major source of the fluctuations in light intensity experienced by phytoplankton in the upper ocean is vertical motion. We estimate time and space scales for \Tertical displacements of phytoplankton caused by turbul...
متن کاملObservational and numerical modeling methods for quantifying coastal ocean turbulence and mixing
In this review paper, state-of-the-art observational and numerical modeling methods for small scale turbulence and mixing with applications to coastal oceans are presented in one context. Unresolved dynamics and remaining problems of field observations and numerical simulations are reviewed on the basis of the approach that modern process-oriented studies should be based on both observations an...
متن کاملsimulation and experimental studies for prediction mineral scale formation in oil field during mixing of injection and formation water
abstract: mineral scaling in oil and gas production equipment is one of the most important problem that occurs while water injection and it has been recognized to be a major operational problem. the incompatibility between injected and formation waters may result in inorganic scale precipitation in the equipment and reservoir and then reduction of oil production rate and water injection rate. ...
Multi-decadal trends in the advection and mixing of natural carbon in the Southern Ocean
[1] Multi-decadal trends in the advection, mixing, and airsea flux of natural carbon dioxide (CO2) in the Southern Ocean are investigated using output from a hindcast simulation of a non-eddy-resolving ocean model. Particular emphasis is placed on the model’s improved eddy-induced advection parameterization. From 1958 to 2007, the model predicts a significant increase in the outgassing of natur...
