Modeling studies of ocean circulation using inverse methods and bifurcation theory

Creator:

Vernieres, Guillaume

Abstract:

We present a study of the ocean circulation using state of the art numerical and data assimilation techniques. The second chapter of the thesis presents the development and application of generalized inversion to a simple dynamical model of Lake Kinneret. The intent was to develop the necessary tools to implement...

Unstable jet flow along zonal ridge topography

Creator:

Witter, Donna Lynn

Abstract:

Motivated by observations of locally enhanced sea level variability near steep topographic slopes in regions of strong time-mean flows, effects of zonal ridge topography on zonal oceanic jet flow are investigated. Unstable wave properties and the dynamics of eddy-mean flow interaction are evaluated as a function of topographic geometry using...
