Impacts of Turbulence on Hurricane Intensity
Because of the multi-scale nature of hurricanes, the proposed large-eddy simulation work is also a challenging computational problem. A three-dimensional research cloud model (CM1) with horizontal grid stretching capability is used to conduct convergence test. The Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model is used as a weather-prediction model to examine the eddy-diffusion coefficients obtain...
متن کاملStreamlines in stationary homogeneous isotropic turbulence and fractal-generated turbulence
We compare streamline statistics in stationary homogeneous isotropic turbulence and in turbulence generated by a fractal square grid. We examine streamline segments characterised by the velocity difference u D and the distance l between extremum points. We find close agreement between the stationary homogeneous isotropic turbulence and the decay region of the fractal-generated turbulence as wel...
متن کاملForest Response to Chronic Hurricane Disturbance in Coastal New England
Question: Hurricanes and cyclones cause a wide range of damage to coastal forests worldwide. Most of these storms are not catastrophic in ecological terms, but forest responses to storms of moderate intensities are poorly understood. In regions with a high frequency of moderate hurricanes, how does variation in disturbance intensity affect the magnitude of ecological responses? Location: Nausho...
متن کاملNumerical Modeling of Saline Gravity Currents Using EARSM and Buoyant k- Turbulence Closures
Gravity currents are very common in nature and may appear in rivers, lakes, oceans, and the atmosphere. They are produced by the buoyant forces interacting between fluids of different densities and may introduce sediments and pollutants into water bodies. In this study, the hydrodynamics and propagation of gravity currents are investigated using WISE (Width Integrated Stratified Environments), ...
متن کاملM odelling outflows, coastal currents and eddies
Several types of flows driven by outflows on the continental shelf are examined mathematically and numerically. Within a quasigeostrophic framework, a variety of vertical structures and topographies are used. Features are explained in terms of potential vorticity conservation. The combined effects of topography and anomalous vorticity of the outflow are studied. First, shelf-like topography is ...
