Turbulence and biophysical fluxes in the near surface ocean

Creator:

Hoecker-Martínez, Martín

Abstract:

Vertical transports of plankton, momentum, heat, and turbulence are modeled. A novel integration of high resolution turbulence and biophysical modeling is used to show the influence of a Kelvin-Helmholtz instability on the vertical migration of simple gyrotactic organisms. A viscous limit on mixing driven by shear turbulence is proposed. Large...

Turbulence in sheared, salt-fingering favorable environment

Creator:

Kimura, Satoshi

Abstract:

Instability and turbulence in sheared, salt-fingering favorable stratification are studied using three-dimensional direct numerical simulations (DNS). Salt-fingering favorable stratification is gravitationally stable, because the unstable vertical gradient of salinity is stabilized by temperature (warm, salty over cool, fresh water-masses). Salt-fingering instability can occur at the interface of these different water-masses....

Decomposition of absorption coefficients and decorrelation lengthscales of hydrographic and inherent optical properties in the Middle Atlantic Bight

Creator:

Simeon, Jennifer J.

Abstract:

This investigation is an exploration of the use of inherent optical properties towards further elucidation of coastal circulation processes occurring on the continental shelf and slope in the Middle Atlantic Bight, south of Cape Cod Massachusetts, during 14-Aug to 1-Sep 1996 and 25-Apr to 15-May 1997. Assessing the possibility of...

MicroSoar : a high speed microstructure profiling system

Creator:

May, Glenn H.

Abstract:

As ocean ecosystems continue to deteriorate in the face of human induced pressures, marine management professionals are increasingly being urged to predict the impacts of various activities on ocean ecosystems. Many ecosystem interactions are still not adequately understood, so managers often turn to scientists to provide data and analysis on...

Parameterization of the oceanic mixed layer use in general circulation models

Creator:

Heald, Robert Cameron

Abstract:

The behavior of different parameterizations of mixed layer physics when used in an oceanic general circulation model (OGCM) having coarse resolution of the upper ocean is examined. The method of parameterization is expected to have an important effect on the resulting sea surface temperature, and hence affect the model's overall...
