Lagrangian analyses of oceanic flows provide insight into the various transport pathways in the ocean. This analysis typically relies on a dense set of trajectories that can be computed …
Uncertainties in velocity data are often ignored when computing Lagrangian particle trajectories of fluids. Modeling these as noise in the velocity field leads to a random …
Surface convergence in the ocean is associated with accumulation of buoyant pollutants as well as with vertical transport that is important to biological activity. Such surface …
Complex dynamical systems can potentially contain a vast amount of information. Accurately assessing how much of this information must be captured to retain the essential physics is a …
