Wind-driven barotropic gyre I: Circulation control by eddy vorticity fluxes to an enhanced removal region
It is well known that the barotropic, wind-driven, single-gyre ocean model reaches an inertiallydominated equilibriumwith unrealistic circulation strength when the explicit viscosity is reduced to realistically low values. It is shown here that the overall circulation strength can be controlled nonlocally by retaining thin regions of enhanced viscosity parameterizing the effects of increased mi...
متن کاملTransition to aperiodic variability in a wind-driven double-gyre circulation model
Multiple equilibria as well as periodic and aperiodic solution regimes are obtained in a barotropic model of the midlatitude ocean’s double-gyre circulation. The model circulation is driven by a steady zonal wind profile that is symmetric with respect to the square basin’s zonal axis of north–south symmetry, and dissipated by lateral friction. As the intensity of the wind forcing increases, an ...
متن کاملPlankton dynamics and mesoscale turbulence
In aquatic ecosystems, primary production (the transformation of inorganic materials and light into living matter by photosynthesis) is operated mainly by small, unicellular algae that float freely in the upper layers of oceans and lakes and are collectively called phytoplankton, see for an illustration the phytoplankters depicted in figure 1. Since phytoplankton need light, they are confined t...
متن کاملStructure and Spacing of Jets in Barotropic Turbulence
Turbulent flows are often observed to be organized into large-spatial-scale jets such as the familiar zonal jets in the upper levels of the Jovian atmosphere. These relatively steady large-scale jets are not forced coherently but are maintained by the much smaller spatialand temporal-scale turbulence with which they coexist. The turbulence maintaining the jets may arise from exogenous sources s...
متن کاملDouble-Star Detection Using Convolutional Neural Network in Atmospheric Turbulence
In this paper, we investigate the usage of machine learning in the detection and recognition of double stars. To do this, numerous images including one star and double stars are simulated. Then, 100 terms of Zernike expansion with random coefficients are considered as aberrations to impose on the aforementioned images. Also, a telescope with a specific aperture is simulated. In this work, two k...
