Response of a Small River Plume on Wind Forcing
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021 Wind forcing is the main driver of river plume dynamics. Direction and magnitude of wind determine position, shape, and size of a river plume. The response of river plumes on wind forcing was simulated in many numerical modeling studies; however, in situ

A Sensitivity Analysis of the Wind Forcing Effect on the Accuracy of Large-Wave Hindcasting
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2018 Deployment of wave energy converters (WECs) relies on consistent and accurate wave resource characterization, which is typically achieved through numerical modeling using deterministic wave models.

Effect of Tropical Cyclone Wind Forcing on Improving Upper Ocean Simulation: An Idealized Study
Remote SensingWe examined how wind forcing affects the upper ocean response under idealized tropical cyclone (TC) conditions. In this study, we constructed three parameterized wind fields with varying spatial and temporal resolutions for TCs of different intensities ...

Variability in coastal downwelling circulation in response to high-resolution regional atmospheric forcing off the Pearl River estuary [PDF]
Ocean Science, 2023 We investigated the variabilities in coastal circulation and dynamics in response to spatiotemporally variable high-resolution atmospheric forcing off the Pearl River estuary during the downwelling wind.

Nonlocal and local wind forcing dependence of the Atlantic meridional overturning circulation and its depth scale [PDF]
Ocean Science, 2022 We use wind sensitivity experiments to understand the wind forcing dependencies of the level of no motion as the depth of maximum overturning and the e-folding pycnocline scale, as well as their relationship to northward transport of the mid-depth ...

A methodology for the design and testing of atmospheric boundary layer models for wind energy applications [PDF]
Wind Energy Science, 2017 The GEWEX Atmospheric Boundary Layer Studies (GABLS) 1, 2 and 3 are used to develop a methodology for the design and testing of Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes (RANS) atmospheric boundary layer (ABL) models for wind energy applications.

Surface-layer turbulence, energy balance and links to atmospheric circulations over a mountain glacier in the French Alps [PDF]
The Cryosphere, 2017 Over Saint-Sorlin Glacier in the French Alps (45° N, 6.1° E; ∼ 3 km2) in summer, we study the atmospheric surface-layer dynamics, turbulent fluxes, their uncertainties and their impact on surface energy balance (SEB) melt estimates.

Structure and variability of the Pechora plume in the southeastern part of the Barents Sea
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023 The Pechora River forms the large Pechora River plume in the southeastern part of the Barents Sea (also called the Pechora Sea). Many previous works addressed water masses in the Barents Sea, however, the Pechora plume received relatively little ...
