The Effect of Wind Forcing on Modeling Coastal Circulation at a Marine Renewable Test Site

open access: yesEnergies, 2017
The hydrodynamic circulation in estuaries is primarily driven by tides, river inflows and surface winds. While tidal and river data can be quite easily obtained for input to hydrodynamic models, sourcing accurate surface wind data is problematic ...

Nonlinear evolution of the modulational instability under weak forcing and damping [PDF]

open access: yesNatural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2010
The evolution of modulational instability, or Benjamin-Feir instability is investigated within the framework of the two-dimensional fully nonlinear potential equations, modified to include wind forcing and viscous dissipation.

FIELD AND NUMERICAL STUDY OF THE WIND-WAVE REGIME ON THE GORKY RESERVOIR

open access: yesGeography, Environment, Sustainability, 2016
The paper describes the study of wind-wave regime at the Gorky reservoir. A series of field experiments (carried out from May to October in 2012–2015) showed that the values of the drag coefficient CD for a middle-sized reservoir in the range of moderate

Wind Force at Sea [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 1888
IN reference to a letter on the above subject in NATURE (P. 274), I beg to acquaint your readers that Capt. Barker's wish that anemometers should be used more on board ship has been endeavoured to be met by an instrument designed by myself on the sail principle.

Synoptic Flow Variability in a River-Influenced Inner Shelf off Central Chile

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022
The response of inner shelf circulation and bottom temperature variability to synoptic wind forcing and freshwater outflow is evaluated in an area with a wide continental shelf off central Chile.

A Numerical Study on the Impact of High-Frequency Winds on the Peru Upwelling System during 2014–2016

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2019
The contribution of high-frequency wind to the Peruvian upwelling system during 2014−2016 was studied using the Regional Ocean Modeling System (ROMS), forced by four different temporal resolution (six-hourly, daily, weekly, and monthly) wind ...

Wind-Driven Coastal Upwelling near Large River Deltas in the Laptev and East-Siberian Seas

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2020
The Lena, Kolyma, and Indigirka rivers are among the largest rivers that inflow to the Arctic Ocean. Their discharges form a freshened surface water mass over a wide area in the Laptev and East-Siberian seas and govern many local physical, geochemical ...

Quantifying the spread in sudden stratospheric warming wave forcing in CMIP6 [PDF]

open access: yesWeather and Climate Dynamics
Sudden stratospheric warmings (SSWs) show a large spread across climate models in characteristics such as frequency of occurrence, seasonality and strength. This is reflective of inherent model biases.

Altering Kinetic Energy Entrainment in Large Eddy Simulations of Large Wind Farms Using Unconventional Wind Turbine Actuator Forcing

open access: yesEnergies, 2015
In this study, horizontally periodic large eddy simulations (LES) are utilized to study turbulent atmospheric boundary-layer flow over wind turbines in the far-downstream portion of a large wind farm where the wakes have merged and the flow is fully ...
