Linear and Nonlinear Stratified Spindown over Sloping Topography
In a stratified rotating fluid, frictionally driven circulations couple with the buoyancy field over sloping topography. Analytical and numerical methods are used to quantify the impact of this coupling on the vertical circulation, spindown of geostrophic flows, and the formation of a shelfbreak jet. Over a stratified. slope, linear spindown of a geostrophic along-isobath flow induces cross-iso...
متن کاملSign cancellation and scaling in the vertical component of velocity and vorticity in rotating turbulence.
We study sign changes and scaling laws in the Cartesian components of the velocity and vorticity of rotating turbulence, in the helicity, and in the components of vertically averaged fields. Data for the analysis are provided by high-resolution direct numerical simulations of rotating turbulence with different forcing functions, with up to 1536(3) grid points, with Reynolds numbers between ≈110...
متن کاملAnisotropy and cyclone-anticyclone asymmetry in decaying rotating turbulence
The effect of a background rotation on the decay of homogeneous turbulence produced by a grid is experimentally investigated. Experiments have been performed in a channel mounted in the large-scale ’Coriolis’ rotating platform, and measurements have been carried out in the planes normal and parallel to the rotation axis using particle image velocimetry. After a short period of about 0.4 tank ro...
متن کاملInternal hydraulics and mixing in a highly stratified estuary
Shipboard acoustic Doppler current profiler and conductivity-temperaturedepth data obtained during highly stratified conditions in the Hudson River estuary along a section of variable width and breadth are presented. The observations emphasize tidal period asymmetries in the vertical structure of current and salinity. However, these asymmetries exhibit significant along-channel structure which ...
متن کاملDynamics and Thermodynamics Analysis of Tropical Cyclone Haiyan
Tropical cyclone Haiyan (TCH) that formed over the West Pacific Ocean during 3-11 November 2013 has been investigated using three datasets produced by Japan Meteorology Agency, ECMWF and NCEP. Strength of TCH has been studied using two synoptic parameters of 10-m wind velocity and mean sea level pressure (MSLP). Following, three dynamic parameters including vertical wind shear (VWSH) vector, he...
