This paper investigates the geometric structure of a quasigeostrophic approximation to a recently introduced reduced-gravity thermal rotating shallow-water model that accounts for stratification. Specifically, it considers a low-frequency…
Driven by growing momentum in two-dimensional geophysical flow modeling, this paper introduces a general family of "thermal" rotating shallow-water models. The models are capable of accommodating thermodynamic processes, such as those…
We extend exploration of potential vorticity instabilities in cold astrophysical disks whose mean states are baroclinic. In particular, we seek to demonstrate the potential existence of traditional baroclinic instabilities of meteorological…
We derive the global model of thermal quasi-geostrophy on the sphere via asymptotic expansion of the thermal rotating shallow water equations. The model does not rely on the asymptotic expansion of the Coriolis force and extends the…
We introduce a structure preserving discretization of stochastic rotating shallow water equations, stabilized with an energy conserving Casimir (i.e. potential enstrophy) dissipation. A stabilization of a stochastic scheme is usually…
We consider the nonlinear evolution of an unstable baroclinic wave in a regime of rotating stratified flow that is of relevance to interior circulation in the oceans and in the atmosphere---a regime characterized by small large-scale Rossby…
We have previously shown that the nonlinear growth of a finite-amplitude perturbation to a basic state given by a baroclinic zonal flow on the $\beta$-plane in a thermal quasigeostrophic reduced-gravity model can be a priori bounded. In…
Context: The observations of rapidly rotating stars are increasingly detailed and precise thanks to interferometry and asteroseismology; two-dimensional models taking into account the hydrodynamics of these stars are very much needed. Aims:…
A water-filled differentially heated rotating annulus with initially prepared stable vertical salinity profiles is studied in the laboratory. Based on two-dimensional horizontal particle image velocimetry (PIV) data, and infrared camera…
A new shallow layer laboratory model of global atmosphere circulation is realized. The shallow rotating cylindrical layer of fluid with the localized heater at the bottom periphery and localized cooler in the central part of the upper…
Zonal jets in a barotropic setup emerge out of homogeneous turbulence through a flow-forming instability of the homogeneous turbulent state (`zonostrophic instability') which occurs as the turbulence intensity increases. This has been…
Low-frequency simulations of a one-layer model with lateral buoyancy variations (i.e., thermodynamically active) have revealed circulatory motions resembling quite closely submesoscale observations in the surface ocean rather than…
Mixing and heat transfer rates are typically enhanced when operating at high-pressure transcritical turbulent flow regimes. The rapid variation of thermophysical properties in the vicinity of the pseudo-boiling region can be leveraged to…
We consider a multilayer generalization of Ripa's inhomogeneous-density single-layer primitive-equation model. In addition to vary arbitrarily in horizontal position and time, the horizontal velocity and buoyancy fields are allowed to vary…
The purpose of this paper is to present a shallow-water-type model with multiple inhomogeneous layers featuring variable linear velocity vertical shear and startificaion in horizontal space and time. This is achieved by writing the layer…
The main objective of this article is to derive a mathematical theory associated with the nonlinear stability and dynamic transitions of the basic shear flows associated with baroclinic instability, which plays a fundamental role in the…
We investigate the stability of stratified fluid layers undergoing homogeneous and periodic tidal deformation. We first introduce a local model which allows to study velocity and buoyancy fluctuations in a Lagrangian domain periodically…
We analyze the linear stability of monoclinal traveling waves on a constant incline, which connect uniform flowing regions of differing depths. The classical shallow-water equations are employed, subject to a general resistive drag term.…
We present a fully nonlinear hydrodynamic 'shallow water' model of the solar tachocline. The model consists of a global spherical shell of differentially rotating fluid, which has a deformable top, thus allowing motions in radial directions…
In the magnetohydrodynamic approximation, system of equations is proposed which analytically describes the initial stage of origination of axially symmetric directed flows in nonequilibrium stratified plasma. The mechanism of generation is…
