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…
