The Impact Of Surface Buoyancy Flux Variability On Water Mass Formation In North Atlantic Numerical Simulations
No full textof a doctoral dissertation at the University of Miami. Dissertation supervised by Professor Eric P. Chassignet. No. of pages in text 136 In this dissertation work, the processes responsible for the observed interannual and near-decadal variability in the mode waters of the North Atlantic Ocean are investigated, in particular those related to the renewal of Subtropical Mode Water (STMW) and Labrador Sea Water (LSW). This study is carried out within the framework of numerical simulations performed with an Ocean General Circulation Model (the Miami Isopycnic Coordinate Ocean Model - MICOM), under realistic boundary forcing. First, the constraints imposed upon the model thermodynamic adjustment by the formulation of the surface and lateral forcing are explored in detail, in a series of experiments under climatological boundary conditions. Relaxation of model properties to climatology at the oceanic boundaries (buffer zones) is found to be a robust approach in MICOM. Different surface heat ..

Modeling and forecasting the "weather of the ocean" at the mesoscale
No full textWe present a historical perspective on ocean mesoscale variability and turbulence, from the physical basis and the first numerical models to recent simulations and forecasts. In the mesoscale range (typically, spatial scales of 100 km and time scales of a month), nonlinearity, and energy cascades were well understood in the 1970s, but the emergence of coherent vortices took place much later. New challenges have arisen with the exploration of the submesoscale regime, where frontal dynamics play a key role and the range of flow instabilities is wider than in the quasi-geostrophic regime. Special focus is placed on the interaction of mesoscale turbulence with the continental slopes. The contrast between the variability on the western and eastern boundaries of an ocean basin is illustrated by numerical simulations of the North Atlantic. On the eastern continental slope, direct forcing of currents by wind fluctuations is more important than it is on the western side of the basin, where forcing by intrinsic mesoscale variability is dominant. Dynamical characteristics of the ocean mesoscale such as these must be taken into account in building forecasting systems. These systems require improved numerical models to represent mesoscale variability with more fidelity. We present our view of the most pressing needs for model development as they relate to the challenges of data assimilation at the mesoscale

Dr. Eric Yellin – Faculty Author Interview
No full textDr. Eric Yellin, Associate Professor of History and American Studies discusses his new book, Racism in the Nation’s Service: Government Workers and the Color Line in Woodrow Wilson’s America, published recently by the University of North Carolina Press. In this book, Dr. Yellin argues that President Wilson’s administration successfully segregated the federal government in the age of progressive politics. He investigates how the enactment of the segregation policy imposed a color line on American opportunity and implicated Washington in the economic limitation of African Americans for decades to com
