Abstract

This paper extends the theoretical Euler-Poincar\'e framework for modelling ocean mixed layer dynamics. Through a symmetry-broken Lie group invariant variational principle, we derive a generalised Green-Naghdi equation with time dependent bathymetry, a complete Coriolis force, and inhomogeneity of the thermal buoyancy. The nature of the model derived here lends it a potential future application to wave dynamics generated by changes to the bathymetry.
