Numerical simulations of the Princeton magneto-rotational instability experiment with conducting axial boundaries

, 2016
We investigate numerically the Princeton magneto-rotational instability (MRI) experiment and the effect of conducting axial boundaries or endcaps. MRI is identified and found to reach a much higher saturation than for insulating endcaps. This is probably

Near-Surface Dispersion and Current Observations Using Dye, Drifters, and HF Radar in Coastal Waters

Remote Sensing
This study explores the near-surface dispersion mechanisms of contaminants in coastal waters, leveraging a comprehensive method that includes using dye and drifters as tracers, coupled with diverse observational platforms like drones, satellites, in situ

Magnetorotational Instability in Liquid Metal Couette Flow

, 2002
Despite the importance of the magnetorotational instability (MRI) as a fundamental mechanism for angular momentum transport in magnetized accretion disks, it has yet to be demonstrated in the laboratory.

Bottom Ekman transport drives transverse flows to shape contourite moat and drift systems

Earth and Planetary Science Letters
Despite six decades of investigation into deepwater sedimentary systems, the mechanisms that generate transverse flows to transfer sediments across contourite channel (moat) and drift systems have remained unclear. Here we present the direct evidence of driving mechanisms from in situ observations of contourite systems, both deep marine (South China ...

Cumulative Effect of Synoptic‐Scale Storms on Decadal Mixed‐Layer Temperature Variability in the Mid‐Latitude North Pacific

Geophysical Research Letters
Decadal variability of mixed‐layer temperature (Tm) in the mid‐latitude North Pacific plays a key role in air–sea interactions and regional climate. While previous studies have emphasized the role of large‐scale climate modes in this variability, the ...

Direct numerical simulation of sand particles transporting in the atmospheric Ekman boundary layer

Flow
Abstract This study presents a direct numerical simulation that investigates the transport mechanisms of sand particles in the neutrally stable atmospheric Ekman boundary layer (AEBL). The simulation models the AEBL in a half-channel flow, taking into account the Earth's rotation and adding a Coriolis term to the Navier–Stokes equations.
