Model sensitivity across scales: a case study of simulating an offshore low-level jet [PDF]

Wind Energy Science
In this study, a seven-member ensemble of mesoscale-to-microscale simulations with varying sea surface temperature (SST) is conducted for a case in which an offshore low-level jet was observed via floating lidar.

Studying the influence of cold-core mesoscale ocean eddies on sound propagation based on the parabolic equation method

AIP Advances, 2023
Mesoscale vorticity is an important factor that affects the non-uniform horizontal and vertical distribution of hydrologic elements in the ocean. In this paper, temperature and salinity data from measured mesoscale cold-core eddies during a voyage within

Review on the mesoscale characterization of cement-stabilized macadam materials

Journal of Road Engineering, 2023
The base layer constructed by cement-stabilized macadam (CSM) has been widely used in highway construction due to its low elasticity deformation and high carrying capacity. As a bearing layer, the CSM base is not exempt from fatigue cracking under cyclic

A vortex-implanted initialization scheme for the mesoscale eddy prediction: Idealized experiments

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022
Mesoscale eddy prediction has been a big challenge to oceanographers and marine environment forecasters. Although the traditional initialization for the prediction, i.e., through assimilating the satellite-derived sea level anomalies (SLA) into a model ...

Comparison between Eulerian diagnostics and finite-size Lyapunov exponents computed from altimetry in the Algerian basin [PDF]

, 2008
Transport and mixing properties of surface currents can be detected from altimetric data by both Eulerian and Lagrangian diagnostics. In contrast with Eulerian diagnostics, Lagrangian tools like the local Lyapunov exponents have the advantage of ...
