Profiles of salinity and potential temperature in the deep ocean are presented which suggest the characteristic signature of two complementary mixing processes: vertical mixing within approx.50-m-thick layers at boundaries and topographic features and lateral advection and eventual smearing of these mixed layers along iopyenal surfaces.

In considering the structure and dynamics of complex networks, we usually deal with degree distributions, clustering, shortest path lengths and other graph properties. Although these concepts have been analysed for graphs on abstract spaces, many networks happen to be embedded in a metric arrangement, where the geographical distance between vertices plays a crucial role. The ...

Atmospheric vertical winds can be attributed to barometric, divergent, and nonhydrostatic motions. Barometric and divergent effects are modeled well by most contemporary general circulation models (GCMs), while nonhydrostatic effects are not accounted for in "hydrostatic" GCMs. In particular, in times of enhanced high-latitude energy input by Joule heating ...

Closed-loop thermosyphons are pipe networks in which the flow is due to simultaneous heating and cooling of different sections of the pipe network. Thermosyphons are commonly modeled one-dimensionally, where wall shear is accounted for by a friction factor.

Complex nature of foraging behaviour of zooplankton makes it difficult to describe adequately zooplankton grazing in models with vertical space. In mean-field models (based on systems of PDEs or coupled ODEs), zooplankton feeding at a given depth is normally computed as the product of the local functional response and the zooplankton density at this depth. Such simplification ...
