Energetically consistent localised APE budgets for local and regional studies of stratified flow energetics
Remi Tailleux, Guillaume Roullet
Because it allows a rigorous separation between reversible and irreversible processes, the concept of available potential energy (APE) has become central to the study of turbulent…
On the Links Between Thermobaricity, Available Potential Energy, Neutral Directions, Buoyancy Forces, and Lateral Stirring in the Ocean
Remi Tailleux, Gabriel Wolf
The various ingredients of Lorenz theory of available potential energy (APE) are shown to hold the key for understanding how to develop a first-principles theory of lateral stirrin…
Spiciness theory revisited, with new views on neutral density, orthogonality and passiveness
Remi Tailleux
This paper clarifies the theoretical basis for constructing spiciness variables optimal for characterising ocean water masses. Three essential ingredients are identified: 1) a mate…
APE dissipation is a form of Joule heating. It is irreversible, not reversible
Remi Tailleux
Available Potential Energy (APE) dissipation plays a central role in the description of mixing in turbulent stratified fluids. The dominant paradigm is that it converts APE into ba…
Assessment of algorithms for computing moist available potential energy
Bethan L. Harris, Remi Tailleux
Atmospheric moist available potential energy (MAPE) has been traditionally defined as the potential energy of a moist atmosphere relative to that of the adiabatically sorted refere…
On the local view of atmospheric available potential energy
Lenka Novak, Remi Tailleux
The possibility of constructing Lorenz's concept of available potential energy (APE) from a local principle has been known for some time, but has received very little attention so…
