Global differences of temperature and buoyancy flux at the ocean surface are responsible
for small-scale convection at high latitudes, global overturning, and the top-to-bottom density …

Stimulated Imbalance and the Enhancement of Eddy Kinetic Energy Dissipation by Internal
Waves in: Journal of Physical Oceanography Volume 47 Issue 1 (2017) Jump to Content …

Recent results have shown that convection forced by a temperature gradient along one
horizontal boundary of a rectangular domain at a large Rayleigh number can be turbulent in …

In contrast with the atmosphere, which is heated from below by solar radiation, the ocean is
both heated and cooled from above. To drive a deep-reaching overturning circulation in this …

Ice-covered waterbodies are far from being quiescent systems. In this paper, we investigate
ice-covered freshwater basins heated by solar radiation that penetrates across waters with …

The hydrodynamic effects of the largest suspended mussel farms in the East China Sea near
Gouqi Island, was investigated using a high-resolution 3D ocean model and field …

Thermally driven flows in fractures play a key role in enhancing the heat transfer and fluid
mixing across the Earth's lithosphere. Yet the energy pathways in such confined …

Energy Cascades and Loss of Balance in a Reentrant Channel Forced by Wind Stress and
Buoyancy Fluxes in: Journal of Physical Oceanography Volume 45 Issue 1 (2015) Jump to …

From the Eocene (∼ 50 million years ago) to today, Southern Ocean circulation has evolved
from the existence of two ocean gyres to the dominance of the Antarctic Circumpolar Current …

Horizontal convection has been used as an idealised model of the ocean overturning
circulation, where some non-uniform buoyancy forcing profile is imposed along a horizontal …
