1. On methods for estimating oceanic flow
Sammanfattning : The aim of this thesis was to estimate and possibly quantify ocean flow by utilizing conventional and novel observational methods as well as model results. Motionally induced voltages, from a cable-based observational system in the Baltic Sea, were analysed to determine their utility for ocean monitoring. LÄS MER
2. A study of nongeostrophic perturbations in a zonal flow with emphasis on criteria for baroclinic stability
Sammanfattning : .... LÄS MER
3. On errors in meteorological data assimilation
Sammanfattning : Data assimilation in Numerical Weather Prediction (NWP) optimally blends observations with atmospheric model data in order to obtain the best possible initial state for an atmospheric model prediction. Specification of error characteristics is an important part of data assimilation. LÄS MER
4. Large Eddy Simulation of Non-Local Turbulence and Integral Measures of Atmospheric Boundary Layers
Sammanfattning : A new large eddy simulation (LES) code is developed and used to investigate non-local features of turbulent planetary boundary layers (PBLs). The LES code is based on filtered Navier-Stokes equations, which describe motions of incompressible, Boussinesq fluid at high Reynolds numbers. LÄS MER
5. Exchange flows in estuaries and archipelagos
Sammanfattning : Different aspects of the exchange of water and tracersbetween adjacent coastal basins, and between the coast and thesea, are addressed. Deviations from the inviscid hydraulicprediction of flow rates and interface heights in maximaltwo-layer exchange flows due to viscous effects are quantifiedby means of non-hydrostatic, three-dimensional numericalmodeling.
