Factors governing the existence of an abrupt transition to superrotation in an idealized GCM
Corentin Herbert
Some numerical simulations of very warm climates suggest that the Earth's atmosphere may undergo a transition to a state of equatorial superrotation, where the zonal-mean zonal win…
Statistics of inhomogeneous turbulence in large scale quasi-geostrophic dynamics
Anton Svirsky, Corentin Herbert, Anna Frishman
A remarkable feature of two-dimensional turbulence is the transfer of energy from small to large scales. This process can result in the self-organization of the flow into large, co…
The culmination of an inverse cascade: mean flow and fluctuations
Anna Frishman
Two dimensional turbulence has a remarkable tendency to self-organize into large, coherent structures, forming a mean flow. The purpose of this paper is to elucidate how these stru…
Statistical mechanics of quasi-geostrophic flows on a rotating sphere
Corentin Herbert, Bérengère Dubrulle, Pierre-Henri Chavanis +1
Statistical mechanics provides an elegant explanation to the appearance of coherent structures in two-dimensional inviscid turbulence: while the fine-grained vorticity field, descr…
Phase transitions and marginal ensemble equivalence for freely evolving flows on a rotating sphere
Corentin Herbert, Bérengère Dubrulle, Pierre-Henri Chavanis +1
The large-scale circulation of planetary atmospheres like that of the Earth is traditionally thought of in a dynamical framework. Here, we apply the statistical mechanics theory of…
