Global Cascade of Kinetic Energy in the Ocean and the Atmospheric Imprint
Benjamin A. Storer, Michele Buzzicotti, Hemant Khatri +2
We present the first estimate for the ocean's global scale-transfer of kinetic energy (KE), across scales from 10~km to 40000~km. We show the existence of oceanic KE transfer betwe…
Exploring the non-stationarity of coastal sea level probability distributions
Fabrizio Falasca, Andrew Brettin, Laure Zanna +3
Studies agree on a significant global mean sea level rise in the 20th century and its recent 21st century acceleration in the satellite record. At regional scale, the evolution of…
Global Energy Spectrum of the General Oceanic Circulation
Benjamin A. Storer, Michele Buzzicotti, Hemant Khatri +2
Since the advent of satellite altimetry, our perception of the oceanic circulation has brought into focus the pervasiveness of mesoscale eddies that have typical scales of tens to…
Surface Quasigeostrophic Turbulence in Variable Stratification
Houssam Yassin, Stephen M. Griffies
Numerical and observational evidence indicates that, in regions where mixed-layer instability is active, the surface geostrophic velocity is largely induced by surface buoyancy ano…
Spatio-temporal coarse-graining decomposition of the global ocean geostrophic kinetic energy
Michele Buzzicotti, Benjamin A. Storer, Hemant Khatri +2
We expand on a recent determination of the first global energy spectrum of the ocean's surface geostrophic circulation (Storer et al., 2022) using a coarse-graining (CG) method. We…
On the Discrete Normal Modes of Quasigeostrophic Theory
Houssam Yassin, Stephen M. Griffies
The discrete baroclinic modes of quasigeostrophic theory are incomplete and the incompleteness manifests as a loss of information in the projection process. The incompleteness of t…
The KPP boundary layer scheme: revisiting its formulation and benchmarking one-dimensional ocean simulations relative to LES
Luke P Van Roekel, Alistair J. Adcroft, Gokhan Danabasoglu +7
We evaluate the Community ocean Vertical Mixing (CVMix) project version of the K-profile parameterization (KPP). For this purpose, one-dimensional KPP simulations are compared acro…
