Parameterization of Eddy Fluxes near Oceanic Boundaries
In the stably stratified interior of the ocean, mesoscale eddies transport materials by quasiadiabatic isopycnal stirring. Resolving or parameterizing these effects is important for modeling the oceanic general circulation and climate. Near the bottom and near the surface, however, microscale boundary-layer turbulence overcomes the adiabatic, isopycnal constraints for the mesoscale transport. I...
متن کاملGenetic Evidence for Modifying Oceanic Boundaries Relative to Fiji.
We present the most comprehensive genetic characterization to date of five Fijian island populations: Viti Levu, Vanua Levu, Kadavu, the Lau Islands, and Rotuma, including nonrecombinant Y (NRY) chromosome and mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) haplotypes and haplogroups. As a whole, Fijians are genetically intermediate between Melanesians and Polynesians, but the individual Fijian island populations ex...
متن کاملSeismic evidence for sharp lithosphere-asthenosphere boundaries of oceanic plates.
The mobility of the lithosphere over a weaker asthenosphere constitutes the essential element of plate tectonics, and thus the understanding of the processes at the lithosphere-asthenosphere boundary (LAB) is fundamental to understand how our planet works. It is especially so for oceanic plates because their relatively simple creation and evolution should enable easy elucidation of the LAB. Dat...
متن کاملSpaces not distinguishing convergences
In the present paper we introduce a convergence condition (Σ) and continue the study of “not distinguish” for various kinds of convergence of sequences of real functions on a topological space started in [2] and [3]. We compute cardinal invariants associated with introduced properties of spaces.
متن کاملAn Observed Tropical Oceanic Radiative–Convective Cloud Feedback
Anomalies of precipitation, cloud, thermodynamic, and radiation variables are analyzed on the large spatial scale defined by the tropical oceans. In particular, relationships between the mean tropical oceanic precipitation anomaly and radiative anomalies are examined. It is found that tropical mean precipitation is well correlated with cloud properties and radiative fields. In particular, the t...
