A Polar Surface Eddy Obscured by Thermal Stratification [PDF]
AbstractMesoscale and submesoscale eddies play an important role in the distribution of heat and biogeochemical properties throughout the global oceans. Such eddies are important in the Arctic Ocean, particularly in the frontal regions, but are difficult to detect using traditional satellite‐based methods.

Earth's Inner Core dynamics induced by the Lorentz force [PDF]
Seismic studies indicate that the Earth's inner core has a complex structure and exhibits a strong elastic anisotropy with a cylindrical symmetry. Among the various models which have been proposed to explain this anisotropy, one class of models considers

Self-Organization of Atmospheric Macroturbulence into Critical States of Weak Nonlinear Eddy–Eddy Interactions [PDF]
It is generally held that atmospheric macroturbulence can be strongly nonlinear. Yet weakly nonlinear models successfully account for scales and structures of baroclinic eddies in Earth's atmosphere.

Suggestion for the Proper Treatment of Buoyancy Force Effect on Single Phase Thermal Stratification Phenomenon [PDF]
In the operating nuclear power plant, piping and components installed in the in-service testing (IST) systems connected to the reactor coolant system are potentially exposed to fatigue caused by thermal stratification flow, possibly threatening its ...

A Climatology of the Tropospheric Thermal Stratification Using Saturation Potential Vorticity [PDF]
The condition of convective neutrality is assessed in the troposphere by calculating the saturation potential vorticity P* from reanalysis data. Regions of the atmosphere in which saturation entropy is constant along isosurfaces of absolute angular ...

Time-averaged single sided ventilation rates and thermal environment in cooling mode for a low energy retrofit envelope [PDF]
Non-invasive, scalable, building retrofit solutions are very attractive deep renovation techniques to improve energy efficiency in existing buildings; this includes natural ventilation for cooling due to the low impact nature of the installation. However,
