We investigate the influence of baroclinic tidal waves on the diffusion of an impurity spot in a continuously stratified liquid.
The equation of turbulent diffusion is solved numerically by taking into account the wave currents. We establish the dependences
of the characteristics of the diffusion process on the parameters of the baroclinic wave and the location of the impurity
spot.

This paper discusses, in terms of the geometrical optics approximation, how large-scale bottom irregularities influence the
propagation of Rossby waves in the ocean. To describe the major peculiarities of the phenomenon, a two-layer model is applied,
with the depth of the upper layer being considerably smaller than that of the lower layer. However, even with the bottom topography
being allowed for, the wave motion is described by two Rossby wave modes, namely, a barotropic mode and a baroclinic mode.
It is demonstrated that barotropic mode transformation caused by large irregularities of the sea-floor may lead to wave interaction,
resulting in their anomalous distribution.

Variations of the western boundary currents induced by a periodic change in wind stress are studied in a two-layer model with a continental slope along the western boundary. The variation of the total transport of the western boundary current over the continental slope shows a considerable phase lag with the wind stress and a decrease in amplitude compared with for the flat bottom ocean, though the interior barotropic response is to adjust almost instantaneously to the wind stress. The total transport variation of the western boundary current is well approximated by the upper layer transport variation. That is, almost complete separation of the upper- and lower-layer flows takes place over the slope, and only the upper layer flow contributes to the change in total transport of the western boundary current. Contributions of the interior barotropic and baroclinic responses to the upper layer transport variation depend on the forcing period. With decrease in the forcing period, the barotropic response becomes relatively important for determining the upper layer transport variation although the amplitude of the variation is smaller. 相似文献

A simple analytical model is considered for the dynamics of volume transport of the Tsushima Current. This model is basically
baroclinic but allows bottom friction over the shallow regions connecting the Pacific Ocean to the Japan Sea basin, and is
thus different from previous models which are either purely barotropic with bottom friction predominating over the whole domain,
or purely baroclinic with bottom friction completely ignored. Compared to the previous barotropic model, this model is not
only more realistic but also gives much simpler results. It gives the observed downstream sea level slope, which is not seen
in the previous baroclinic model. As a result, the estimated transport of the Tsushima Current is closer to the observational
data than those of previous models. This model indicates that the localized bottom friction acting over the shallow regions
not only controls the transport of the Tsushima Current but also moves the stagnation point of the western boundary current
northward.

The effect of stratification on very long-period waves trapped on a straight continental shelf of constant depth is examined for a two-layer model. There are 4 modes in this system. The characteristics of the mode with the largest phase velocity can be approximated by the barotropic mode. The mode corresponding to the barotropic shelf-wave mode is modified by the baroclinic motions significantly, and in the limit of very narrow shelf width, the mode characteristics are transformed from those of the barotropic shelf-wave to the baroclinic Kelvin wave if the long-shore wave length is larger than the internal deformation radius. In this case, the stratification has an apparent effect of increasing phase velocity of barotropic shelf-waves. The remaining two modes are dominated by baroclinic motions with significant contribution from barotropic motions: among which the one has a shelf-wave characteristics for small values of the shelf width and approaches the mode corresponding to the baroclinic Kelvin wave in shallower water for large shelf width and the other is a stationary mode. If the long-shore wave length is much shorter than the internal deformation radius, the motions in the upper and lower layers are decoupled: the surface and bottom modes analogous to those discussed byRhines (1970) appears.If the interface is deeper than the shelf depth, the stationary mode is absent and the characteristics of the third mode approaches those of the baroclinic double Kelvin wave mode as the shelf width increases. 相似文献

We consider long barotropic waves in a system of two rectangular basins connected by a channel in the case where waves are
generated by the moving region of disturbances of atmospheric pressure passing above one of the basins. By using a numerical
model, we compute the characteristics of the wave process for various values of the parameters of this system. The results
of numerical calculations are compared with the corresponding characteristics obtained for the case of a closed basin. We
also analyze the distinctive features of long-wave processes induced in the presence of the channel.

The representation of baroclinic instability in numerical models depends strongly upon the model physics and significant differences may be found depending on the vertical discretization of the governing dynamical equations. This dependency is explored in the context of the restratification of an idealized convective basin with no external forcing. A comparison is made between an isopycnic model including a mixed layer (the Miami Isopycnic Coordinate Ocean Model, MICOM), its adiabatic version (MICOM-ADIAB) in which the mixed layer physics are removed and the convective layer is described by a deep adiabatic layer outcropping at the surface instead of a thick dense mixed layer, and a z-coordinate model (OPA model).In the absence of a buoyancy source at the surface, the mixed layer geometry in MICOM prevents almost any retreat of this layer. As a result, lateral heat exchanges in the upper layers are limited while mass transfers across the outer boundary of the deep convective mixed layer result in an unrealistic outward spreading of this layer. Such a widespread deep mixed layer maintains a low level of baroclinic instability, and therefore limits lateral heat exchanges in the upper layers over most of the model domain. The behavior of the adiabatic isopycnic model and z-coordinate model is by far more satisfactory although contrasted features can be observed between the two simulations. In MICOM-ADIAB, the more baroclinic dynamics introduce a stronger contrast between the surface and the dense waters in the eddy kinetic energy and heat flux distributions. Better preservation of the density contrasts around the dense water patch maintains more persistent baroclinic instability, essentially associated with the process of dense water spreading. The OPA simulation shows a faster growth of the eddy kinetic energy in the early stages of the restratification which is attributed to more efficient baroclinic instability and leads to the most rapid buoyancy restoring in the convective area among the three simulations. Dense water spreading and warm surface capping occur on fairly similar time scales in MICOM-ADIAB although the former is more persistent that the latter. In this model, heat is mainly transported by anticyclonic eddies in the dense layer while both cyclonic and anticyclonic eddies are involved in the upper layers. In OPA, heat is mainly brought into the convective zone through the export of cold water trapped in cyclonic eddies with a strong barotropic structure. Probably the most interesting difference between the z-coordinate and the adiabatic isopycnic model is found in the temperature distribution ultimately produced by the restratification process. OPA generates a spurious volume of intermediate water which is not seen in MICOM-ADIAB where the volume of the dense water is preserved. 相似文献

Horizontal and meridional volume transports on timescales from intra-seasonal to interannual in the North Pacific subarctic
region were investigated using a reanalysis dataset for 1993–2001 that was constructed from an assimilation of the TOPEX altimeter
and in situ data into an eddy-permitting North Pacific ocean general circulation model. The barotropic flow is excited along east of
the Emperor Seamounts by the western intensification dynamics. The volume transport of this flow compensates for that across
the interior region east of the Seamounts below the summit depth of the Seamounts. The Oyashio, which is also considered as
a compensation flow for the transport in the whole interior region, includes baroclinic as well as barotropic components.
Baroclinic transports in the whole interior region exceed those in the western boundary region in the upper (200–1000 m) and
lower (2000–5000 m) layers, and the total transport is northward (southward) in the upper (lower) layer. These excesses of
the baroclinic transport are balanced by a vertical transport of the meridional overturn. The meridional overturn has a complementary
relation to the basin-scale baroclinic circulation in the North Pacific subactic region.

The interannual variations of sea level at Chichi-jima and five other islands in the subtropical North Pacific are calculated for 1961–95 with a model of Rossby waves excited by wind. The Rossby-wave forcing is significant east of 140°E. Strong forcing of upwelling (downwelling) Rossby wave occurs during El Niño (La Niña) and warm (cold) water anomaly in the eastern equatorial Pacific. The first and second baroclinic modes of Rossby wave are more strongly generated than the barotropic mode in the study area. A higher vertical mode of Rossby wave propagates more slowly and is more decayed by eddy dissipation. The best coefficient of vertical eddy dissipation is determined by comparing the calculated sea level with observation. The variation in sea level at Chichi-jima is successfully calculated, in particular for the long-term change of the mean level between before and after 1986 with a rise in 1986 as well as the variations with periods of two to four years after 1980. It is concluded that variations of sea level at Chichi-jima are produced by wind-forced Rossby waves, the first baroclinic wave primarily and the barotropic wave secondly. The calculation for other islands is less successful. Degree of the success in calculation almost corresponds to a spatial difference in quantity of wind data, and seems to be determined by quality of wind data. 相似文献

The circulation in the basin of the South China Sea is reproduced using a four-layer numerical model. Current fields in the second (upper) and third (intermediate) layers are emphasized. Three eddies coexist in the upper layer in summer. The circulation pattern in this layer is similar to that in the first (surface) layer. In winter, a cyclonic circulation occupies the entire basin of the South China Sea in the upper layer as in the surface layer. On the other hand, the circulation pattern in the intermediate layer is fairly different from that in upper two layers especially in winter. A double-gyre pattern appears in the intermediate layer during winter. The pattern is caused by the propagation of the baroclinic Rossby wave of the second mode. This wave is excited at onset of the winter monsoon wind. Such circulation pattern well explains the observed salinity distribution in the intermediate layer. Although the double-gyre pattern in the intermediate layer is revealed even in summer in this model, it is restricted in the western part of the basin. Besides, its current speed is small compared to that in winter. 相似文献

Internal waves generated by a barotropic wave impinging on a bottom ridge with continuously varying height are studied within
the framework of the linear theory of long waves. We consider the case where the diurnal tide travels at an arbitrary angle
to the axis of the ridge located in the area of a geostrophic flow caused by tilting of the free sea surface and the interface
of a two-layer ocean. We study the dependences of the amplitudes of internal waves on the velocity of the geostrophic flow,
the direction of propagation of the barotropic tide, and the geometry of the ridge.

We analyze the dependence of climatic variations of the location of the upper boundary of the hydrogen-sulphide zone in the
Black Sea on the variations of the sea level and various types of atmospheric circulation (according to A.A. Girs). It is
discovered that the level of correlation between the indicated parameters is high and that the corresponding plots are in
good qualitative agreement. The accumulated results enable us to make an assumption that there exists an 80–100-yr cycle of
variation of all analyzed parameters and that the long-term variations of the location of the upper boundary of the hydrogen-sulphide
zone can be regarded as a manifestation of global climatic variations.

Free waves (seiches) in a circular basin of variable depth are studied numerically within the framework of the linear theory
of long waves taking into account the action of the Coriolis force. We determine the frequencies of axisymmetric and circular
waves, study the structure of the modes of elevation of the free surface and wave velocities, and establish the dependences
of the phase velocities of circular waves on the number of mode and wavelength.

Within the framework of the linear theory of long waves, we study the evolution of a wave process caused by the action of
surface pressure periodically varying in time in a bounded basin of variable depth without vertical walls. We assume that
the basin is filled with a homogeneous liquid nonperturbed at the initial time and take into account the action of dissipative
forces. We obtain the analytic solution of the posed problem. It is used to perform the detailed analysis of the influence
of the dissipative forces and the frequency of perturbing pressure on the characteristics of the process of evolution of waves.

Propagation of Rossby Waves over Ridges Excited by Interannual Wind Forcing in a Western North Pacific Model 总被引：1，自引：4，他引：1
Numerical experiments with a multi-level general circulation model have been performed to investigate basic processes of westward
propagation of Rossby waves excited by interannual wind stress forcing in an idealized western North Pacific model with ocean
ridges. When the wind forcing with an oscillation period of 3 years is imposed around 180°E and 30°N, far from Japan, barotropic
waves excited by the wind can hardly cross the ridges, such as the Izu-Ogasawara Ridge. On the other hand, a large part of
the first-mode baroclinic waves are transmitted across the ridges, having net mass transport. The propagation speed of the
first-mode baroclinic wave is accelerated (decelerated) when an anticyclonic (cyclonic) circulation is formed at the sea surface,
due to a deeper (shallower) upper layer, and to southward (slightly northward) drift of the circulation. Thus, when the anticyclonic
circulation is formed on the northern side of the cyclonic one, they propagate almost together. The second-mode baroclinic
waves converted from the first-mode ones on the ridges arrive south of Japan, although their effects are small. The resulting
volume transport variation of the western boundary current (the Kuroshio) reaches about 60% of the Sverdrup transport variability
estimated from the wind stress. These characteristics are common for the interannual forcing case with a longer oscillation
period. In the intraseasonal and seasonal forcing cases, on the other hand, the transport variation is much smaller than those
in the interannual forcing cases.

Within the framework of the linear theory of long waves, we perform the numerical investigation of transformations of a barotropic
diurnal tide in the process of its motion from the deepwater region of the sea into the region of continental slope and shelf
zone at any angle to the coast line. For a linear profile of the bottom of the continental slope and shelf, we establish dependences
of the amplitudes and velocities of waves on the direction of propagation of the tidal wave and the latitude of the place.
