Why Eddy Momentum Fluxes are Concentrated in the Upper Troposphere
Farid Ait-Chaalal, Tapio Schneider
The extratropical eddy momentum flux (EMF) is controlled by generation, propagation, and dissipation of large-scale eddies and is concentrated in Earth's upper troposphere. An idea…
Cumulant expansions for atmospheric flows
Farid Ait-Chaalal, Tapio Schneider, Bettina Meyer +1
The equations governing atmospheric flows are nonlinear. Consequently, the hierarchy of cumulant equations is not closed. But because atmospheric flows are inhomogeneous and anisot…
Fast chemical reaction in two-dimensional Navier-Stokes flow: Initial regime
Farid Ait-Chaalal, Michel S. Bourqui, Peter Bartello
This paper studies an infinitely fast bimolecular chemical reaction in a two-dimensional bi-periodic Navier-Stokes flow. The reactants in stoichiometric quantities are initially se…
Fast chemical reaction in a two-dimensional Navier-Stokes flow: Probability distribution in the initial regime
Farid Ait-Chaalal, Michel S. Bourqui, Peter Bartello
We study an instantaneous bimolecular chemical reaction in a two-dimensional chaotic, incompressible and closed Navier-Stokes flow. Areas of well mixed reactants are initially sepa…
