Sentences with phrase «eddy kinetic»
In climate research, the intensity of a storm track is often measured by the band pass filtered eddy kinetic energy, geopotential variance or related variables.

Ocean surface cooling, in the North Atlantic as well as the Southern Ocean, increases tropospheric horizontal temperature gradients, eddy kinetic energy and baroclinicity, which drive more powerful storms.
«Both the eddy kinetic energy and the dry mean available potential energy have a maximum for a climate close to that of present day Earth and are smaller in much warmer and much colder climates»
This is shown by the change of zonal mean temperature and eddy kinetic energy in our simulations with and without ice melt.
The researchers also noted a statistically significant relationship between times of low eddy kinetic energy and extremely high temperature anomalies — for example, the sweltering Russian heat wave of 2010.
Coumou has taken the story forward, analyzing existing climate models to track the future of eddy kinetic energy over the 21st century.

«The increase in kinetic energy of these eddies actually only became apparent a few years after a strong SAM event.»
Eddies can grow by extracting kinetic energy from a steady - state flow pattern, if there is an elongated horizontal maximum or minimum in potential vorticity; however, the shear can tilt those eddies in such a way that the eddies give back their kinetic eEddies can grow by extracting kinetic energy from a steady - state flow pattern, if there is an elongated horizontal maximum or minimum in potential vorticity; however, the shear can tilt those eddies in such a way that the eddies give back their kinetic eeddies in such a way that the eddies give back their kinetic eeddies give back their kinetic energy.
