Abstract:

In recent years, the study of synchronization phenomena in nonlinear systems has made a number of significant advances in various areas of physics, engineering and the life sciences. Ideas of chaos synchronization have been used recently in some atmospheric phenomena as an attempt to better understand certain kinds of cyclic behaviour and teleconnection patterns, and at least some have shown promising results.

Abstract:

This thesis describes two studies of baroclinic instability in a rotating fluid annulus subject to differential heating. The first part is concerned with the development of a time dependent axisymmetric numerical model. The model was formulated using the control volume finite element method and was designed to be as flexible as possible both in terms of the range of problems to be studied and the techniques used to study them. Details of these techniques are presented together with a discussion of their limitations and possible refinements and extensions which could be made. The second part of

Abstract:

Dynamics of baroclinic jets on extrasolar planets is studied using three-dimensional general circulation models (GCMs) which solve the traditional hydrostatic primitive equations. The focus is on: i ) baroclinic ow and instability on hot-Jupiters; ii ) detailed GCM intercomparison in a commonly used extrasolar planet setup; and, iii ) equatorial superrotation on Earth-like planets. Stability, non-linear evolution and equilibration of high-speed ageostrophic jets are studied under adiabatic condition relevant to hot-Jupiters. It is found that zonal jets can be baroclinically unstable, despite t

Abstract:

Baroclinic instability, the fundamental mechanism underlying the generation of baroclinic eddies in the atmosphere and ocean is investigated in the two-layer, quasi-geostrophic model. The aim is to bridge the gap in understanding between analytical theories and high resolution numerical simulations of more realistic flows. In chapter 1 the physical motivation for the problems, two-layer model and numerical scheme are introduced. In chapter 2, the instability of a uniform flow profile without Ekman friction is investigated. The success of a weakly nonlinear theory due to Warn & Gauthier at fini

Abstract:

The aim of this research is to understand how mid-latitude weather systems ventilate pollutants out of the boundary layer. Specifically, which regions of the boundary layer beneath mid-latitude weather systems can exchange air with the troposphere which physical processes act to transport pollutants, and what controls the amount of ventilation. These questions are investigated by simulating dry baroclinic life cycles in the presence of a boundary-layer parameterisation scheme with a passive tracer included to represent pollutants.

Abstract:

Baroclinic and barotropic processes are the key components of midlatitude tropospheric dynamics. Baroclinic processes are involved in the growth of extratropical storms, whereas barotropic processes are involved in their decay, suggesting the two processes are closely linked. Their links are conventionally studied through wavemean flow interaction theory and through modes of variability, and both planetary and synoptic scale waves play an important role in interacting with the baroclinic and barotropic mean flow. These processes are studied using multiscale asymptotic methods, which provide a

Baroclinic tides result from the interaction of barotropic tides with topography in stratified oceans. They play an important role in driving deep ocean mixing. In this research, investigations of the dynamics of baroclinic tides and internal solitary waves (ISWs) in the northern South China Sea (SCS) are conducted, mainly by means of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology general circulation model (MITgcm). Firstly, simulations of internal wave generation at the Luzon Strait (LS) are carried out. By conducting three-dimensional (3D), high-resolution experiments, it was found that the gener

The trajectories of 55 satellite-tracked drifters defmed the full spatial extent of the cyclonic circulation that is the western Irish Sea gyre. Several distinct recirculation paths were observed and drifter speeds were in good agreement with geostrophic calculations based on the observed density field. T

The bathymetries are examined using idealized lake forms as well as data from two Canadian lakes. Modal analysis and a three
