Optics and remote sensing of Bahamian carbonate sediment whitings and potential relationship to wind-driven Langmuir circulation
remote sensing Bahamian carbonate sediment whitings wind-driven Langmuir circulation
2010/1/19
Regions of milky white seas or "whitings" periodically occur to the west of Andros Island along the Great Bahama Bank where the bottom sediment consists of fine-grained aragonite mud. We present measu...
The Langmuir Circulation Instability as a Mixing Mechanism in the Upper Ocean
Langmuir Circulation Instability Mixing Mechanism Upper Ocean
2009/2/16
A numerical study of the fully nonlinear instability of the ocean to Langmuir circulations is reported. The extended Craik-Leibovich theory is used to compute the development of a mixed layer in an oc...
The Breakup of Langmuir Circulation and the Instability of an Array of Vortices
Langmuir Circulation side-scan sonar
2008/12/22
The presence and pattern of Langmuir circulation can be detected using side-scan sonar. The circulation creates bands of subsurface bubbles, scatterers of high-frequency sound, in the downwelling regi...
Is Langmuir Circulation Driven by Surface Waves or Surface Cooling?
thermal convection Langmuir Circulation Surface Waves Surface Cooling
2008/12/11
The ratio of the buoyancy force driving thermal convection to the surface wave vortex-force driving Langmuir circulation in the Craik–Leibovich mechanism involves the Hoenikker number Ho. The critical...
Mixed Layer Deepening Due to Langmuir Circulation
Langmuir circulation deepening Mixed Layer
2008/11/11
The interaction between wind-driven Langmuir circulation and preexisting stratification is examined in order to elucidate its role in the deepening of the ocean surface mixed layer. For linear stratif...
