  1. Enhanced vertical mixing within mesoscale eddies due to high frequency winds in the south China sea

    Cardona Orozco, Yuley MildreyGeorgia Institute of Technology2011

    … or higher (daily and six-hourly cases), then Vortex Rossby waves and near inertial waves are excited as ageostrophic expression of the vigorous eddy field. Those waves dominate the vertical velocity field in the mixed layer (vortex Rossby waves) and below the first hundred meters (near …

  2. Vertical transport at curved ocean fronts

    Wu, WeiguangMassachusetts Institute of Technology and Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution2026

    … of elliptical eddies in terms of propagating vortex Rossby waves. In summary, our results indicate that curvature-induced vertical transport dominates over frontogenesis-induced vertical transport at curved fronts. This framework has potential to improve estimates of vertical velocity from SSH.

  3. Horizontal vorticity redistribution and vortex alignment in developing and mature tropical cyclones

    Reasor, Paul D., author, Montgomery, Michael T., advisor, Schubert, Wayne, committee member, Rutledge, Steve A., committee member, Kirby, Michael, committee member, Marks, Frank D., Jr., committee memberColorado State University. Libraries2000

    … redistribution of vorticity within a vortex is examined here in the context of tropical cyclone (TC) structure and intensity change. Aspects of the horizontal vorticity mixing dynamics are first presented in a novel analysis of high temporal resolution wind fields derived from airborne …
