Sampling sea state using a diffusion model
Jiarong Wu, Bertrand Chapron, Laure Zanna
Sea state prediction is essential for operational maritime applications and coupled earth system modeling, yet current spectral wave models remain computationally prohibitive for m…
Data-Driven Probabilistic Air-Sea Flux Parameterization
Jiarong Wu, Pavel Perezhogin, David John Gagne +4
Accurately quantifying air-sea fluxes is important for understanding air-sea interactions and improving coupled weather and climate systems. This study introduces a probabilistic f…
A Framework for Hybrid Physics-AI Coupled Ocean Models
Laure Zanna, William Gregory, Pavel Perezhogin +23
Climate simulations, at all grid resolutions, rely on approximations that encapsulate the forcing due to unresolved processes on resolved variables, known as parameterizations. Par…
Growth rate and energy dissipation in wind-forced breaking waves
Nicolò Scapin, Jiarong Wu, J. Thomas Farrar +3
We investigate the energy growth and dissipation of wind-forced breaking waves at high wind speed using direct numerical simulations of the coupled air-water Navier-Stokes equation…
Turbulence and energy dissipation from wave breaking
Jiarong Wu, Stéphane Popinet, Bertrand Chapron +2
Wave breaking is a critical process in the upper ocean: an energy sink for the surface wave field and a source for turbulence in the ocean surface boundary layer. We apply a novel…
Momentum fluxes in wind-forced breaking waves
Nicolò Scapin, Jiarong Wu, J. Thomas Farrar +3
We investigate the momentum fluxes between a turbulent air boundary layer and a growing-breaking wave field by solving the air-water two-phase Navier-Stokes equations through direc…
