Ocean Convective Available Potential Energy. Part I: Concept and Calculation
Thermobaric convection (type II convection) and thermobaric cabbeling (type III convection) might substantially contribute to vertical mixing, vertical heat transport, and deep-water formation in the World Ocean.However, the extent of this contribution remains poorly constrained. The concept of ocean convective available potential energy (OCAPE), the thermobaric energy source for type II and ty...
متن کاملAvailable potential energy density for a multicomponent Boussinesq fluid with arbitrary nonlinear equation of state
In this paper, the concept of available potential energy (APE) density is extended to a multicomponent Boussinesq fluid with a nonlinear equation of state. As shown by previous studies, the APE density is naturally interpreted as the work against buoyancy forces that a parcel needs to perform to move from a notional reference position at which its buoyancy vanishes to its actual position; becau...
متن کاملAvailable potential energy and irreversible mixing in the meridional overturning circulation
The overturning circulation of the global oceans is examined from an energetics viewpoint. The general framework of Winters et al. (1995) for stratified turbulence is used, first to highlight the importance of available potential energy in facilitating the transfer of kinetic energy to the background potential energy (defined as the adiabatically-rearranged state with no motion). Next, it is sh...
متن کاملNew Estimates of the Available Potential Energy in the World Ocean
On the basis of extensive global data sets the total amounts of internal, potential, latent, and kinetic energy in the world oceans and atmosphere are estimated and compared for annual mean and seasonal conditions. Next, an expression for the available gravitational potential energy in the oceans is derived. The computed amounts of zonal mean and transient eddy available potential energy and th...
