The grant will support the numerical investigation and validation of stratified up-side down Langmuir turbulence from September 1, 2021 to August 31, 2023. As part of its mission to strengthen the national scientific enterprise's understanding of the integrated Earth system, the Geosciences program aims to expand...
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) Project Grant award in the amount of $353,715 will fund a collaborative research project to study the turbulence in the stratified layer at the air-water interface, as driven by waves and wind. The project will utilize a combination of controlled laboratory experiments and advanced numerical simulations (large-eddy simulations) to test the hypothesis that coupling between waves and wind-driven currents is necessary to...
- The National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) awarded a $580,031 Project Grant to Oregon State University to develop new methods for identifying various types of turbulence and mixing regimes in the upper ocean. The primary goal is to characterize the energetics and anisotropy (non-uniformity in three spatial directions) of upper ocean turbulence resulting from different surface forcings, such as heating/cooling, wind-driven shear, and wave-wind interactions. The project...
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Geosciences program Project Grant award, with a total funding of $438,734, supports a collaborative research effort to study the turbulence in the stratified layer at the air-water interface caused by waves and wind. The research will be conducted through a combination of controlled laboratory experiments and state-of-the-art numerical simulations, with the goal of improving the representation of the ocean surface boundary layer in Earth-system models....
- The National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Ocean Sciences awarded a $383,008 Project Grant to the University of Washington to analyze oceanographic data collected in the lee of the Hirase Seamount in the Tokara Strait, south of Japan during 2021-2022. The data, which includes observations of temperature, salinity, velocity, and turbulent dissipation, will be used to investigate strong nonlinear interactions between the Kuroshio Current and the seamount, and the associated turbulence....
