Analysis of the variability of the last 18 yr (1993– 2012) of a 32 yr run of a new near-global, eddy-resolving ocean general circulation model coupled with biogeochemistry is presented. Comparisons between modelled and observed mean sea level (MSL), mixed layer depth (MLD), sea level anomaly (SLA), sea surface temperature (SST), and chlorophyll a indicate that the model variability is realistic...

The convective heat transfer behavior of supercritical nitrogen (S-N2) has played a significant role in optimizing the design recently emerging cryogenic cold storage and recovery systems. However, studies on S-N2 have been relatively scarce, not to mention that there is legitimate urge for robust numerical model accurately predict explain under various working conditions. In this paper, both e...

In the summer of 2004, the Kuroshio took a large meander path south of Japan for the first time since 1991, and this large meander event persisted until the next summer. Satellite observations and numerical model simulations are used to study the effect of this large meander event on the atmosphere. The large meander leaves a cool water pool between the Kuroshio and Japanese coast. Sea surface ...

Isothermal turbulent flow around circular cylinders arranged side-by-side was numerically simulated on a commercial finite-volumes platform, ANSYS® CFX, version 2020 R2. The turbulence modeled by using k-ω shear stress transport (k-ω SST). Three different Reynolds numbers were computed, Red = 200, 1000, and 3000, which based the cylinder diameter, d, free stream velocity, U∞, kinematic viscosit...

THE STOP SIGNAL TASK AND OCULOMOTOR CONTROL The stop-signal task (SST) was developed to investigate response inhibition. In a typical version, subjects are required to discriminate between stimuli by making speeded manual responses. On a subset of trials, the stimulus to be discriminate...

In 36 climate change simulations associated with phases 3 and 5 of the 7 Coupled Model Intercomparison Project (CMIP3 and CMIP5), changes in marine low 8 cloud cover (LCC) exhibit a large spread, and may be either positive or negative. Here 9 we develop a heuristic model to understand the source of the spread. The model’s 10 premise is that simulated LCC changes can be interpreted as a linear c...

The geometry of a conventional two-bladed Savonius rotor was used in this study based on report available the literature. A two-dimensional model consisting two buckets and an overlap ratio 0.1 prepared. unsteady Reynolds averaged Navier-Stokes (URANS) equations eddy-viscosity turbulence SST k-ω were employed order to solve fluid motion numerically. Instantaneous velocities pressures calculated...

An approach to integrate sea surface temperature (SST) measurements into estimates of geolocations calculated by changes in ambient light level from data downloaded from pop-up satellite archival tags (PSAT) is presented. The model is an extension of an approach based on Kalman filter estimation in a statespace model. The approach uses longitude and latitude estimated from light, and SST. The e...

The Atlantic Multidecadal Oscillation (AMO) has pronounced influences on weather and climate across the globe. This study provides a direct comparison of the observed AMO-related surface temperature and precipitation anomalies to those simulated in the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 5 (CMIP5) models. It is found that the model-simulated AMO-related features are obscured by the glob...
