How winds and ocean currents influence the drift of floating objects

Till J. W. Wagner, Ian Eisenman, Amanda M. Ceroli +1

Arctic icebergs, unconstrained sea ice floes, oil slicks, mangrove drifters, lost cargo containers, and other flotsam are known to move at 2-4% of the prevailing wind velocity rela…

Intrinsic oceanic decadal variability of upper-ocean heat content

Navid C. Constantinou, Andrew McC. Hogg

Atmosphere and ocean are coupled via air-sea interactions. The atmospheric conditions fuel the ocean circulation and its variability, but the extent to which ocean processes can af…

Cause-and-effect of linear mechanisms sustaining wall turbulence

Adrián Lozano-Durán, Navid C. Constantinou, Marios-Andreas Nikolaidis +1

Despite the nonlinear nature of turbulence, there is evidence that part of the energy-transfer mechanisms sustaining wall turbulence can be ascribed to linear processes. The differ…

Alternative physics to understand wall turbulence: Navier-Stokes equations with modified linear dynamics

Adrán Lozano-Durán, Marios-Andreas Nikolaidis, Navid C. Constantinou +1

Despite the nonlinear nature of wall turbulence, there is evidence that the energy-injection mechanisms sustaining wall turbulence can be ascribed to linear processes. The differen…

The Nusselt numbers of horizontal convection

Cesar. B. Rocha, Navid C. Constantinou, Stefan G. Llewellyn Smith +1

We consider the problem of horizontal convection in which non-uniform buoyancy, , is imposed on the top surface of a container and all other surfaces are insulating…

Wall turbulence without modal instability of the streaks

Adrián Lozano-Durán, Marios-Andreas Nikolaidis, Navid C. Constantinou +1

Despite the nonlinear nature of wall turbulence, there is evidence that the mechanism underlying the energy transfer from the mean flow to the turbulent fluctuations can be ascribe…
