Sentences with phrase «vertical velocity field»

Those waves dominate the vertical velocity field in the mixed layer (vortex Rossby waves) and below the first hundred meters (near inertial waves) and they are responsible for the differences in the vertical transport properties under the various forcing fields as quantified by frequency spectra, vertical velocity profiles and vertical dispersion of Lagrangian tracers.

Not exact matches

The set - up of the numerical experiments suggests that the temporal resolution of the atmospheric forcing field is responsible for the significant increase in vertical velocities, in agreement with previous studies (Danioux et al., 2008; Komori et al., 2008).
