Abstract The Northern Benguela Upwelling System (NBUS) is a highly productive yet low‐oxygen region, influenced by the combined effects of circulation and biogeochemical processes. Using data from a high‐resolution (∼7 km) coupled physical–biogeochemical model spanning 1980–2020, this study investigates long‐term dissolved oxygen (DO) variability in ...

Flows of a viscous incompressible liquid with a thermocapillary boundary are investigated numerically on the basis of the mathematical model that consists of the Oberbeck-Boussinesq approximation of the Navier-Stokes equations, kinematic and dynamic ...

The Structure and Lifecycle of Stratified Mixing by Shear Instabilities in Continuously Forced Flows
Abstract The turbulent energy cascade of ocean mixing remains poorly understood at geophysically large Reynolds numbers (Re $\mathrm{R}\mathrm{e}$). Here we propose a new conceptual model for the structure of small‐scale mixing grounded in high‐resolution multibeam echosounding observations from the mouth of the Connecticut River, a shallow salt‐wedge ...

This study explores thermal criticality and dissipation involving a two-step reaction in a hyperbolic tangential fluid flow and quadratic Boussinesq approximation to model the complex internal heat transfer mechanisms during combustion.

How Does Ice Shell Geometry Shape Ocean Dynamics on Icy Moons?
Abstract A poleward‐thinning ice shell can drive circulation in the subsurface oceans of icy moons by imposing a meridional temperature gradient–colder at the equator than the pole–through the freezing point suppression due to pressure. This temperature gradient sets a buoyancy gradient, whose sign depends on the thermal expansion coefficient ...

Abstract The spatial variability in coastal aquifer hydraulic properties significantly affects the extent of seawater and its movement. Yet, previous analytical solutions have almost exclusively evaluated only homogeneous and stratified aquifers. This study derived analytical solutions for the steady‐state, sharp‐interface seawater extent in two ...

Abstract Exhumed metamorphic rocks yield critical insights into the mechanical, chemical, and thermal structure of the plate interface that can be used to infer exhumation pathways and their evolution throughout a subduction zone's lifetime. Metamorphosed oceanic rocks often record exhumation and underplating over relatively punctuated time periods ...

Abstract The seismic expression of Earth's 410 km discontinuity varies across tectonic settings, from sharp, high‐amplitude interfaces to broad transitions—patterns that cannot be explained by equilibrium thermodynamics without invoking large‐scale thermal or compositional heterogeneities.

In this paper, we study the steady creeping convective flow of a viscous incompressible fluid in the thin infinite layer. The study of the fluid flow is based on the exact solutions class for the Oberbeck-Boussinesq equations in the Stokes approximation ...
