Large eddy simulation of buoyant plumes [PDF]

, 2003
A 3d parallel CFD code is written to investigate the characteristics of and differences between Large Eddy Simulation (LES) models in the context of simulating a thermal buoyant plume. An efficient multigrid scheme is incorporated to solve the Poisson

Mean Kinetic Energy and its Projected Changes Dominate over Eddy Kinetic Energy in the Arctic Ocean [PDF]

Geophysical Research Letters
As sea ice retreats in a warming climate, the Arctic Ocean is becoming more energetic; yet little is known about this additional energy’s distribution in the water column. We use a high-resolution (1/12°) pan-Arctic ocean-sea ice model forced by present day and future scenarios to examine changes in mean kinetic energy (MKE) and eddy kinetic energy ...

Dissipation of mesoscale eddies at a western boundary via a direct energy cascade

Scientific Reports, 2022
The fate of mesoscale eddy kinetic energy represents a large source of uncertainty in the global ocean energy budget. Satellite altimetry suggests that mesoscale eddies vanish at ocean western boundaries.

The Dissipation of Kinetic Energy in the Lofoten Basin Eddy [PDF]

Journal of Physical Oceanography, 2018
AbstractOcean microstructure, current, and hydrography observations from June 2016 are used to characterize the turbulence structure of the Lofoten Basin eddy (LBE), a long-lived anticyclone in the Norwegian Sea. The LBE had an azimuthal peak velocity of 0.8 m s−1 at 950-m depth and 22-km radial distance from its center and a core relative vorticity ...

Sources of Eddy Kinetic Energy in the Labrador Sea [PDF]

Journal of Physical Oceanography, 2002
Experiments with a suite of North Atlantic general circulation models are used to examine the sources of eddy kinetic energy (EKE) in the Labrador Sea. A high-resolution model version (112°) quantitatively reproduces the observed signature. A particular feature of the EKE in the Labrador Sea is its pronounced seasonal cycle, with a maximum intensity in

Contribution of mesoscale eddies to energy of the Lofoten Basin

Russian Journal of Earth Sciences, 2022
A comparative assessment of the contribution of eddies and other dynamic structures to the energy of the Lofoten Basin is carried out. The basis of the study is the data of global ocean reanalysis GLORYS12V1 for 1993–2019.

Anatomical study of the three-dimensional structure of a supercharged cold eddy generated in the Kuroshio Extension

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022
The three-dimensional structure of a supercharged cold eddy, which showed strong temperature anomaly, was continuously investigated for 83 days based on current- and pressure-equipped inverted echo sounder observations in the Kuroshio Extension region ...

Eddy Lifetime, Number, and Diffusivity and the Suppression of Eddy Kinetic Energy in Midwinter [PDF]

Journal of Climate, 2018
Abstract The wintertime evolution of the North Pacific storm track appears to challenge classical theories of baroclinic instability, which predict deeper extratropical cyclones when baroclinicity is highest. Although the surface baroclinicity peaks during midwinter, and the jet is strongest, eddy kinetic energy (EKE) and baroclinic ...
