Download or read book A Mathematical Theory of Large-scale Atmosphere/ocean Flow written by Michael J. P. Cullen and published by Imperial College Press. This book was released on 2006 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book counteracts the current fashion for theories of OC chaosOCO and unpredictability by describing a theory that underpins the surprising accuracy of current deterministic weather forecasts, and it suggests that further improvements are possible. The book does this by making a unique link between an exciting new branch of mathematics called OC optimal transportationOCO and existing classical theories of the large-scale atmosphere and ocean circulation. It is then possible to solve a set of simple equations proposed many years ago by Hoskins which are asymptotically valid on large scales, and use them to derive quantitative predictions about many large-scale atmospheric and oceanic phenomena. A particular feature is that the simple equations used have highly predictable solutions, thus suggesting that the limits of deterministic predictability of the weather may not yet have been reached. It is also possible to make rigorous statements about the large-scale behaviour of the atmosphere and ocean by proving results using these simple equations and applying them to the real system allowing for the errors in the approximation. There are a number of other titles in this field, but they do not treat this large-scale regime. Contents: The Governing Equations and Asymptotic Approximations to Them; Solution of the Semi-Geostrophic Equations in Plane Geometry; Solution of the Semi-Geostrophic Equations in More General Cases; Properties of Semi-Geostrophic Solutions; Application of Semi-Geostrophic Theory to the Predictability of atmospheric Flows. Readership: Researchers and graduate students in atmosphere/ocean dynamics with some mathematical background."

This book was released on 2021-06-04 with total page 411 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The high predictability of the atmosphere and ocean depends on the existence of a 'slow manifold', which contains the solutions of equations describing only large-scale motions. This unique compendium succinctly describes major recent advances in showing that these equations can be solved independently.The book is a new edition of a similar book published 15 years ago. The explanation of the mathematical techniques has been expanded. Many new theoretical results are included. Illustrations derived from production atmosphere and ocean models are also incorporated to cover the full range between rigorous mathematics and state-of-the-art numerical modelling.The author is a dynamical meteorologist with long experience and international standing. The mathematical results in the book were proved by many of the world's leading analysts. The results come from the Met Office Unified Model, which is one of the world's leading weather and climate models.Related Link(s)

This book was released on 2010-02-04 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The complex flows in the atmosphere and oceans are believed to be accurately modelled by the Navier-Stokes equations of fluid mechanics together with classical thermodynamics. However, due to the enormous complexity of these equations, meteorologists and oceanographers have constructed approximate models of the dominant, large-scale flows that control the evolution of weather systems. The simplifications often result in models that are amenable to solution both analytically and numerically. This volume and its companion explain why such simplifications to Newton's second law produce accurate, useful models and, just as the meteorologist seeks patterns in the weather, mathematicians seek structure in the governing equations. They show how geometry and analysis facilitate solution strategies.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fluid dynamics is fundamental to our understanding of the atmosphere and oceans. Although many of the same principles of fluid dynamics apply to both the atmosphere and oceans, textbooks tend to concentrate on the atmosphere, the ocean, or the theory of geophysical fluid dynamics (GFD). This textbook provides a comprehensive unified treatment of atmospheric and oceanic fluid dynamics. The book introduces the fundamentals of geophysical fluid dynamics, including rotation and stratification, vorticity and potential vorticity, and scaling and approximations. It discusses baroclinic and barotropic instabilities, wave-mean flow interactions and turbulence, and the general circulation of the atmosphere and ocean. Student problems and exercises are included at the end of each chapter. Atmospheric and Oceanic Fluid Dynamics: Fundamentals and Large-Scale Circulation will be an invaluable graduate textbook on advanced courses in GFD, meteorology, atmospheric science and oceanography, and an excellent review volume for researchers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book sets forth the physical, mathematical, and numerical foundations of computer models used to understand and predict the global ocean climate system. Aimed at students and researchers of ocean and climate science who seek to understand the physical content of ocean model equations and numerical methods for their solution, it is largely general in formulation and employs modern mathematical techniques. It also highlights certain areas of cutting-edge research. Stephen Griffies presents material that spans a broad spectrum of issues critical for modern ocean climate models. Topics are organized into parts consisting of related chapters, with each part largely self-contained. Early chapters focus on the basic equations arising from classical mechanics and thermodynamics used to rationalize ocean fluid dynamics. These equations are then cast into a form appropriate for numerical models of finite grid resolution. Basic discretization methods are described for commonly used classes of ocean climate models. The book proceeds to focus on the parameterization of phenomena occurring at scales unresolved by the ocean model, which represents a large part of modern oceanographic research. The final part provides a tutorial on the tensor methods that are used throughout the book, in a general and elegant fashion, to formulate the equations.

This book was released on 2012 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Multiscale dynamics in the atmosphere-ocean system is ubiquitous from dust devils in the garden to tropical cyclones to mesoscale eddies in the ocean and deep ocean circulation. The purpose of this thesis is to advance ocean-atmosphere general circulation modeling and methodologies for data assimilation in order to resolve more pieces of the climate modeling puzzle than before. Specifically, it focuses on modeling the Madden-Julian Oscillation in a climate model and modeling mesoscale eddies in a regional ocean model with data assimilation. While most climate models today fail to simulate even the large-scale features of the MJO, we find that CCSM4 reproduces many realistic aspects of MJO behavior. CCSM4 produces coherent, broadbanded and energetic patterns in eastward propagating intraseasonal zonal winds and OLR in the tropics with MJO-like characteristics. Broadscale patterns, as revealed in combined EOFs of U850, U200 and OLR, are remarkably consistent with observations and indicate that convective coupling occurs in the simulated MJOs. Relations between the MJO in the model and its concurrence with other climate states reveal that higher amplitude MJO activity occurs during weak warm ENSO events and during periods of weak meridional shear and negative zonal shear during the Indian Monsoons. MJO response to anthropogenic climate change is assessed using CCSM4 in a second study. In global warming scenarios, the model simulation indicates an increase in the number of days with higher amplitude MJOs and also a higher number of active MJO days in the Indian and West Pacific Ocean. These findings are consistent with MJO activity observations of the present and past. The second half of this thesis discusses the implementation of assimilation methodologies in physical oceanography. It presents the mathematical recipe of the assimilation method adapted in the present study and also illustrates the implementation of assimilation of observed data over the oceans in a regional ocean model (ROMS) in the Southeast Pacific region. Fifteen-day ROMS I4D-VAR data assimilation fits are performed successfully. The normalized absolute misfit between the observations and the corresponding model states is reduced close to the observational error range. Eddies are identified from the ocean state estimate along the track of the VOCALS-Rex cruise of 2008 and studied for their hydrography and velocity structure. Cyclonic eddies (sea level anomaly lows) are characterized by shoaling isopycnals in the upper 300 m, colder temperature cores and a shallower salinity minima. It is also observed that the water mass properties of the core of the eddy has similar properties to that in the subantarctic water close to the coast. A heat budget analysis for the period of the cruise reveals that the advection is the predominant process that balances the surface heat flux and temperature tendency. Vertical diffusion is the second highest term balancing the heat budget with the horizontal diffusion being an order of magnitude smaller, Lastly, the role of the linear analysis step of the ensemble Kalman filters (EnKF) in disrupting the balanced dynamics in a simple atmospheric model is investigated and compared to a fully nonlinear particle-based filter (PF). Identical twin experiments show that EnKF and PF capture the variables on the slow manifold well as the dynamics is very stable. PFs, especially the SKRF, capture slaved modes better than the EnKF implying a full Bayesian analysis estimates the nonlinear model variables better. The PFs perform significantly better in the fully coupled nonlinear model where fast and slow variables modulate each other. This suggests that the analysis step in the PFs maintains the balance in both variables much better than the EnKF.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the last three decades geosciences and geo-engineering were influenced by two essential scenarios: First, the technological progress has changed completely the observational and measurement techniques. Modern high speed computers and satellite based techniques are entering more and more all geodisciplines. Second, there is a growing public concern about the future of our planet, its climate, its environment, and about an expected shortage of natural resources. Obviously, both aspects, viz. efficient strategies of protection against threats of a changing Earth and the exceptional situation of getting terrestrial, airborne as well as spaceborne data of better and better quality explain the strong need of new mathematical structures, tools, and methods. Mathematics concerned with geoscientific problems, i.e., Geomathematics, is becoming increasingly important. The ‘Handbook Geomathematics’ as a central reference work in this area comprises the following scientific fields: (I) observational and measurement key technologies (II) modelling of the system Earth (geosphere, cryosphere, hydrosphere, atmosphere, biosphere) (III) analytic, algebraic, and operator-theoretic methods (IV) statistical and stochastic methods (V) computational and numerical analysis methods (VI) historical background and future perspectives.
