Leaking method approach to surface transport in the Mediterranean Sea from a numerical ocean model

Judit Schneider, Vicente Fernandez, Emilio Hernandez-Garcia

We use Lagrangian diagnostics (the leaking and the exchange methods) to characterize surface transport out of and between selected regions in the Western Mediterranean. Velocity fi…

Mixing structures in the Mediterranean Sea from Finite-Size Lyapunov Exponents

Francesco d'Ovidio, Vicente Fernandez, Emilio Hernandez-Garcia +1

We characterize horizontal mixing and transport structures in the surface circulation of the Mediterranean Sea, as obtained from a primitive equation circulation model. We calculat…

Sustained plankton blooms under open chaotic flows

Emilio Hernandez-Garcia, Cristobal Lopez

We consider a predator-prey model of planktonic population dynamics, of excitable character, living in an open and chaotic fluid flow, i.e., a state of fluid motion in which fluid…

Spatial Patterns in Chemically and Biologically Reacting Flows

Emilio Hernandez-Garcia, Cristobal Lopez, Zoltan Neufeld

We present here a number of processes, inspired by concepts in Nonlinear Dynamics such as chaotic advection and excitability, that can be useful to understand generic behaviors in…

Boundary Effects in The Complex Ginzburg-Landau Equation

Victor M. Eguiluz, Emilio Hernandez-Garcia, Oreste Piro

The effect of a finite geometry on the two-dimensional complex Ginzburg-Landau equation is addressed. Boundary effects induce the formation of novel states. For example target like…
