温跃层边界提取的组合算法*

本文提出一种用于海洋温跃层边界提取的组合算法,该算法基于调整判定阈值后的垂直梯度法和一种改进函数模型几何形态后的拟阶梯函数逼近法。为验证该算法对于温跃层边界提取的适应性、客观性,利用中国Argo实时资料中心发布的全球海洋Argo网格资料集（BOA_Argo）,选取2018年夏季0°~30°N,135°E~165°E所在的太平洋区域的温度剖面数据进行处理,结果表明,该算法对低纬度海区温度剖面拟合质量较好,拟合均方根误差普遍低于1.3℃,而且提取到的温跃层上下边界在纬向更加平缓,然而对于中高纬度海区的温度剖面,组合算法的处理效果不佳,更适合直接通过垂直梯度法进行温跃层的提取。

Three-dimensional numerical simulation of nonisotropic thermal density flow in a strongly curved open channel

The results from a 3D nonisotropic algebraic stress/flux turbulence model are presented to investigate the structure of thermal density flow and the temperature distribution in a strongly curved open channel (180° bend). The numerically simulated results show that (i) several secondary flows take place at the bend cross-section 90° of the curved open channel, the feature which is not found for the isothermal flows and thermal density flow in a straight channel, and (ii) the thermocline in a curved channel is thicker than that in a straight channel due to the secondary flows-induced strong mixing process taking place in the former. Such features may be ascribed to the complex interaction of the buoyant force, the centrifugal force and the Reynolds stresses taking place only in curved channels. The simulated results are in good agreement with available experimental data, which indicates that the developed model can be applied for predicting the motion of the nonisotropic thermal density flow in the curved open channel.     

On solvability of a parabolic system arising in physical oceanography

As many equations in fluid mechanics, the thermocline equations, in standard notation, are composed of quasi-linear, first-order partial differential equations. The aim of this paper is to establish an existence, uniqueness result for the solution of such a problem.
