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…

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…

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…

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…

Breaking wave field statistics with a multilayer model

Jiarong Wu, Stéphane Popinet, Luc Deike

The statistics of breaking wave fields is characterised within a novel multi-layer framework, which generalises the single-layer Saint-Venant system into a multi-layer and non-hydr…

Revisiting wind wave growth with fully-coupled direct numerical simulations

Jiarong Wu, Stéphane Popinet, Luc Deike

We investigate wind wave growth by direct numerical simulations solving for the two phase Navier-Stokes equations. We consider ratio of the wave speed to wind friction velocity…
