Symmetric and Asymmetric Structures of Hurricane Boundary Layer in Coupled Atmosphere–Wave–Ocean Models and Observations
It is widely accepted that air–sea interaction is one of the key factors in controlling tropical cyclone (TC) intensity. However, the physical mechanisms for connecting the upper ocean and air–sea interface with storm structure through the atmospheric boundary layer in TCs are not well understood. This study investigates the air–sea coupling processes using a fully coupled atmosphere–wave–ocean...
متن کاملApproximate solution of laminar thermal boundary layer over a thin plate heated from below by convection
In this paper, an integration of a symbolic power series method - Padé approximation technique (PS - Padé), was utilized to solve a system of nonlinear differential equations arising from the similarity solution of laminar thermal boundary layer over a flat plate subjected to a convective surface boundary condition. As both boundary conditions tended to infinity, the combination of series solut...
متن کاملOcean acoustic hurricane classification.
Theoretical and empirical evidence are combined to show that underwater acoustic sensing techniques may be valuable for measuring the wind speed and determining the destructive power of a hurricane. This is done by first developing a model for the acoustic intensity and mutual intensity in an ocean waveguide due to a hurricane and then determining the relationship between local wind speed and u...
متن کاملCORRESPONDENCE Comments on ‘‘Symmetric and Asymmetric Structures of Hurricane Boundary Layer in Coupled Atmosphere–Wave–Ocean Models and Observations’’
In a recent paper, Lee and Chen (2012, hereafter LC12) presented numerical simulations of symmetric and asymmetric hurricane boundary layer structures in a fully coupled atmosphere–wave–ocean model and used these simulations to compare aspects of the boundary layer structure against an analysis of observations. One of their main conclusions was that ‘‘the azimuthally averaged inflow layer tends...
متن کاملMethylmercury production below the mixed layer in the North Pacific Ocean
Mercury enters marine food webs in the form of microbially generated monomethylmercury. Microbial methylation of inorganic mercury, generating monomethylmercury, is widespread in low-oxygen coastal sediments. The degree to which microbes also methylate mercury in the open ocean has remained uncertain, however. Here, we present measurements of the stable isotopic composition of mercury in nine s...
