Dynamics of the solar tachocline I: an incompressible study [PDF]
Gough & McIntyre have suggested that the dynamics of the solar tachocline are dominated by the advection-diffusion balance between the differential rotation, a large-scale primordial field and baroclinicly driven meridional motions.

Nonlinear Damping of ITCZ Migrations Due to Ekman Ocean Energy Transport
AbstractThe role of tropical wind‐driven ocean circulation in setting the position of the Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ) is studied using an atmospheric model coupled to a slab ocean with parameterized Ekman energy transport. Unlike previous studies, the parameterized cross‐equatorial ocean energy transport, which is critical for the coupled ...

The northern sector of the Sicilian Channel is an area of favourable upwelling winds, which ought to support primary production. However, the values for primary production are low when compared with other Mediterranean areas and very low compared with ...

The sensitivity of rapidly rotating Rayleigh--B\'enard convection to Ekman pumping
The dependence of the heat transfer, as measured by the nondimensional Nusselt number $Nu$, on Ekman pumping for rapidly rotating Rayleigh-B\'enard convection in an infinite plane layer is examined for fluids with Prandtl number $Pr = 1$.

Geostrophic convective turbulence: The effect of boundary layers [PDF]
Rayleigh--B\'enard (RB) convection, the flow in a fluid layer heated from below and cooled from above, is used to analyze the transition to the geostrophic regime of thermal convection. In the geostrophic regime, which is of direct relevance to most geo-

Decoding Emotional Signatures of Ethical Ads: An Analysis of Actor‐Viewer Synchrony
ABSTRACT We examine whether ethical advertisements differ from conventional ads in their on‐screen emotional signatures and whether those signatures transfer to actor‐viewer synchrony. Study 1 analyses 138 professionally produced YouTube ads using Automated Facial Expression Recognition (AFER) and Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) to quantify actor ...

Adjustment of the basin-scale circulation at 26 degrees N to variations in Gulf Stream, deep western boundary current and Ekman transports as observed by the Rapid array [PDF]
The Rapid instrument array across the Atlantic Ocean along 26 degrees N provides unprecedented monitoring of the basin-scale circulation. A unique feature of the Rapid array is the combination of full-depth moorings with instruments measuring temperature,

ABSTRACT Ecological models explain social phenomena by assuming specific properties of the world an individual lives in. The evaluative information ecology model (Unkelbach et al. 2019) assumes two such properties: Positive information is more frequent (i.e., positivity prevalence), but negative information is more diverse (i.e., negativity diversity).

Azimuthal velocity profiles in Rayleigh-stable Taylor-Couette flow and implied axial angular momentum transport [PDF]
We present azimuthal velocity profiles measured in a Taylor-Couette apparatus, which has been used as a model of stellar and planetary accretion disks. The apparatus has a cylinder radius ratio of $\eta = 0.716$, an aspect-ratio of $\Gamma = 11.74$, and ...
