The values of the main parameters (significant wave heights, spectrum peak periods, propagation directions) for this period at 92 points uniformly distributed over the Black Sea were analyzed. The main features, by which the zoning of the Black Sea was carried out, were climatic repeatabilities of the following parameters: significant wave heights in the ranges of <em>h</em><sub>s</sub>< 1 m, 1 <<em>h</em><sub>s</sub>< 3 m, 3 <<em>h</em><sub>s</sub>< 5 m, <em>h</em><sub>s</sub>> 5 m; and spectrum peak periods in the ranges <em>t</em><sub>p</sub>< 3 s, 3 <<em>t</em><sub>p</sub>< 6 s, 6 <<em>t</em><sub>p</sub>< 9 s, <em>t</em><sub>p</sub>> 9 s. According discriminant analysis six quasi-homogeneous areas (clusters) in the Black Sea were identified. The main zoning parameters are wave heights in the ranges 3 <<em>h</em><sub>s</sub>< 5 m and <em>h</em><sub>s</sub>> 5 m and periods 6 <<em>t</em><sub>p</sub>< 9 s.

One such dataset is the ECMWF reanalysis, with ERA5 being the latest version, succeeding ERA-Interim (ERA-I or ERAI). However, limited research has explored whether ERA5 improves ocean model accuracy compared to ERA-I. We use the ROMS model on the Adriatic Sea under two atmospheric forcing scenarios: ERA-I and ERA5. Results show that ERA5 calculates higher temperature and salinity values than ERA-I. ERA5 shows better alignment with satellite and Mediterranean reanalysis data than ERA-I. For temperature, ERA5 has a higher bias range (–2.29℃ to 0.83℃) compared to ERA-I (–2.34℃ to 0.80℃) and achieves a lower minimum bias, particularly in summer (0.02℃). Against Mediterranean reanalysis data, ERA5’s temperature bias range (–2.06℃ to 1.54℃) is lower range than ERA-I’s (–3.14℃ to 1.51℃). For salinity, ERA5 also has a smaller bias range (–0.02 PSU to 0.27 PSU) and achieves zero bias in spring, indicating a more accurate seasonal alignment than ERA-I. The warmer water temperatures in ERA5 are attributed to higher values of atmospheric parameters such as shortwave radiation flux, sensible heat flux, and air temperature, while, increased salinity is linked to more negative latent heat flux up to 10 W/m<sup>2</sup>, longwave radiation up to 5 W/m<sup>2</sup>, and higher wind speeds.

However, mesoscale curved fronts and eddies are ubiquitous in the oceans and their curvature may have an impact on baroclinic instability. In this study, we present modifications of the classical Eady and Charney problems, introducing a small amount of curvature in the small-Rossby, large-Richardson number limit. Employing quasi-geostrophic scalings for a predominantly zonal flow in cylindrical polar coordinates, we derive the governing equation of perturbation pressure in the presence of small curvature, treating this quantity as a deviation from a straight front. We find the importance of curvature principally arises through the potential vorticity (PV) gradient. Consequently, although curvature enters the Eady model via an introduction of so-called Green modes, the introduction of curvature does not modify the most unstable mode. In Charney’s model, however, the curvature of the flow introduces a depth scale that governs the vertical extent of the unstable modes and whose importance often presides over planetary beta. We find that introducing cyclonic curvature in Charney’s model increases the horizontal wavelength of the most unstable mode. We also report that curvature modifies the vertical buoyancy flux by extending the vertical scale of the most unstable mode. The possible consequences of these results are discussed. Since our present-day understanding of baroclinic instability assumes centrifugal forces in the mean state to be zero and since this undergirds existing eddy parameterizations, this study (1) offers a new interpretation of at least some of the observed vortices in the ocean and (2) suggests a weakly-curved Charney model might inform future sub-grid-scale parameterizations of baroclinic instability of curved fronts in the oceans.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":50563,"journal":{"name":"Dynamics of Atmospheres and Oceans","volume":"109 ","pages":"Article 101523"},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2024-12-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143160132","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The performance of the models was evaluated, and the results indicated a high level of reliability.

To examine the changes in the water flow field under different flow increments, three distinct flow increment scenarios were tested. The results showed that the best simulation performance occurred when the flow increment was 30 %, with BOD improvement of 51.02 %, NH₃-N improvement of 26.31 %, and NO₃ improvement of 37.13 %. Furthermore, an ESN model was developed to predict future water quality changes in Baisha Reservoir. The accuracy of the ESN model was validated using the water quality simulation results from Scenario 3, yielding an average relative error of 3.26 %. The water quality concentrations predicted under this scenario were significantly lower than the initial concentrations, providing practical insights into addressing issues related to water quantity and quality in the reservoir.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":50563,"journal":{"name":"Dynamics of Atmospheres and Oceans","volume":"109 ","pages":"Article 101522"},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2024-12-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143160126","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the impact of the two different types of El Niño flavors on seasonal SAT variability in SL remains to be thoroughly investigated. Therefore, to identify the effect of two different types of El Niño on SAT over SL, we analyzed reanalysis and observational datasets from 1981 to 2020. This study mainly focused on the boreal spring season during the decaying phase of El Niño events. We show the presence of a strong SAT cooling in spring over the SL during the decaying phase of Central Pacific (CP) El Niño events, while intense spring SAT warming over SL is particularly pronounced during the Eastern Pacific (EP) El Niño decaying phase. It is found that low-level convergence over SL and the east coast of India associated with easterlies extending from the southern flank of the westward-shifted Western North Pacific anticyclones (WNPA) lead to updrafts. This results in enhanced cloud conditions and decreased incoming shortwave radiation, thereby causing strong cooling during CP El Niño events. Conversely, during EP El Niño, the WNPA shifts eastward, and the easterlies are confined around the equator, which helps develop the anti-cyclonic circulation over the Bay of Bengal (BoB). As a result, anomalous low-level divergence induces a strong downdraft over SL. This leads to cloud-free conditions and significantly enhanced incoming shortwave radiation during EP El Niño events, helping to enhance the SAT warming over SL. In addition, a composite analysis of CP and EP El Niño events demonstrated that strong cool (warm) conditions are prevalent in CP (EP) El Niño decaying spring years. This study highlights two distinct types of El Niño as a significant driver for understanding the SAT variability in Sri Lanka.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":50563,"journal":{"name":"Dynamics of Atmospheres and Oceans","volume":"109 ","pages":"Article 101517"},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2024-11-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143160123","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
