We study the temporal fluctuations of the flux of surface potential energy in Surface Quasi-Geostrophic (SQG) turbulence. By means of high-resolution, direct numerical simulations of the SQG model in the regime of forced and dissipated…
Generalised two-dimensional (2D) fluid dynamics is characterised by a relationship between a scalar field $q$, called generalised vorticity, and the stream function $\psi$, namely $q = (-\nabla^2)^\frac{\alpha}{2} \psi$. We study the…
The large-scale energy spectrum in two-dimensional turbulence governed by the surface quasi-geostrophic (SQG) equation $$\partial_t(-\Delta)^{1/2}\psi+J(\psi,(-\Delta)^{1/2}\psi) =\mu\Delta\psi+f$$ is studied. The nonlinear transfer of this…
The inverse transfer in two-dimensional turbulence governed by the surface quasi-geostrophic (SQG) equation is studied. The nonlinear transfer of this system conserves the two quadratic quantities $\Psi_1=<|(-\Delta)^{1/4}\psi|^2>/2$ and…
Two-dimensional turbulence governed by the so-called $\alpha$ turbulence equations, which include the surface quasi-geostrophic equation ($\alpha=1$), the Navier--Stokes system ($\alpha=2$), and the governing equation for a shallow flow on…
This paper establishes several existence and uniqueness results for two families of active scalar equations with velocity fields determined by the scalars through very singular integrals. The first family is a generalized surface…
We study the statistical and geometrical properties of the potential temperature (PT) field in the Surface Quasigeostrophic (SQG) system of equations. In addition to extracting information in a global sense via tools such as the power…
We derive statistical equilibrium solutions of the truncated inviscid surface quasi-geostrophic (SQG) equations, and verify the validity of these solutions at late times in numerical simulations of the truncated SQG equations. The results…
For wavenumbers k such that k * alpha > 1, corresponding to spatial scales smaller than alpha, there are three candidate power laws for the energy spectrum of the Navier-Stokes-alpha model, corresponding to three possible dynamical eddy…
A general proof that more energy flows upscale than downscale in two-dimensional (2D) turbulence and barotropic quasi-geostrophic (QG) turbulence is given. A proof is also given that in Surface QG turbulence, the reverse is true. Though…
In systems governing two-dimensional turbulence, surface quasi-geostrophic turbulence, (more generally $\alpha$-turbulence), two-layer quasi-geostrophic turbulence, etc., there often exist two conservative quadratic quantities, one…
In this investigation, we theoretically studied the transports of kinetic energy and scalar variance in turbulence driven by a scalar-based volume force in $M{\nabla}^{\beta} s'$ form associated with scalar fluctuations $s'$ in wavenumber…
We present a numerical study of turbulence in Bose-Einstein condensates within the 3D Gross-Pitaevskii equation. We concentrate on the direct energy cascade in forced-dissipated systems. We show that behavior of the system is very sensitive…
We study the dual cascade scenario for two-dimensional turbulence driven by a spectrally localized forcing applied over a finite wavenumber range $[k_\min,k_\max]$ (with $k_\min > 0$) such that the respective energy and enstrophy injection…
Numerical and observational evidence indicates that, in regions where mixed-layer instability is active, the surface geostrophic velocity is largely induced by surface buoyancy anomalies. Yet, in these regions, the observed surface kinetic…
Statistical features of homogeneous, isotropic, two-dimensional turbulence is discussed on the basis of a set of direct numerical simulations up to the unprecedented resolution $32768^2$. By forcing the system at intermediate scales, narrow…
We study relaxation toward statistical equilibrium states of inviscid generalised two-dimensional flows, where the generalised vorticity $q$ is related to the streamfunction $\psi$ via $q=(-\nabla^2)^{\frac{\alpha}{2}}\psi$, with the…
We investigate an inequality constraining the energy and potential enstrophy flux in the two-layer quasi-geostrophic model. This flux inequality is unconditionally satisfied for the case of two-dimensional Navier-Stokes turbulence. However,…
We consider the energy spectrum of a quasi-geostrophic model of forced, rotating turbulent flow. We provide a rigorous a priori bound E(k) <= Ck^{-2} valid for wave numbers that are smaller than a wave number associated to the forcing…
We study the small-scale behavior of generalized two-dimensional turbulence governed by a family of model equations, in which the active scalar $\theta=(-\Delta)^{\alpha/2}\psi$ is advected by the incompressible flow $\u=(-\psi_y,\psi_x)$.…
