On the effect of small-scale oceanic variability on topography-generated currents

Alberto Alvarez, Emilio Hernandez-Garcia, Joaquin Tintore

Small-scale oceanic motions, in combination with bottom topography, induce mean large-scale along-isobaths flows. The direction of these mean flows is usually found to be anticyclo…

Forecasting the SST space-time variability of the Alboran Sea with genetic algorithms

Alberto Alvarez, Cristobal Lopez, Margalida Riera +2

We propose a nonlinear ocean forecasting technique based on a combination of genetic algorithms and empirical orthogonal function (EOF) analysis. The method is used to forecast the…

Noise-induced flow in quasigeostrophic turbulence with bottom friction

A. Alvarez, E. Hernandez-Garcia, J. Tintore

Randomly-forced fluid flow in the presence of scale-unselective dissipation develops mean currents following topographic contours. Known mechanisms based on the scale-selective act…

Noise rectification in quasigeostrophic forced turbulence

Alberto Alvarez, Emilio Hernandez-Garcia, Joaquin Tintore

We study the appearance of large scale mean motion sustained by stochastic forcing on a rotating fluid (in the quasigeostrophic approximation) flowing over topography. As in other…

Noise-Sustained currents in quasigeostrophic turbulence over topography

Alberto Alvarez, Emilio Hernandez-Garcia, Joaquin Tintore

We study the development of mean structures in a nonlinear model of large scale ocean dynamics with bottom topography and dissipation, and forced with a noise term. We show that th…
