1 Numerical Simulations of a Stratified Oceanic Bottom Boundary Layer John R. Taylor - MIT Advisor: Sutanu Sarkar - UCSD
2 Motivation Objective I: Assess and improve parameterizations of the bottom boundary layer in ocean models. Velocity magnitude, MITgcm (Chris Hill personal communication) Numerical ocean models are very important to accurate weather and climate prediction. Ocean models cannot resolve three!dimensional turbulence in the bottom boundary layer.
3 Oceanic Bottom Boundary Layer! 5! 1 Mean / Tidal currents U Outer layer, Stable Stratification ρ(z)! 15 Depth (m)! 2! 25 Logarithmic Layer? l z Bottom mixed layer O(1m)! 3! 35 Q = Viscous (Roughness) Sublayer! 4
4 Field Observations Objective II: Provide a database to help interpret field data Data from: Johnson et al. JPO 24, 1994 Meters above bottom Mixed layer height The seafloor stress is often estimated by fitting a logarithmic profile to the observed velocity profile. 1! Velocity (m/s)
5 Field Observations Data from: Johnson et al. JPO 24, 1994 Meters above bottom Mixed layer height Best fit 5-2m u*=8.56 cm/s τ w = ρ u 2 =7.5 N/m 2 Best fit -5m u*=4.83 cm/s τ w = ρ u 2 =2.4 N/m 2 1! Velocity (m/s) Shear is larger at the top of the mixed layer. Can lead to a dramatic overestimate in the wall stress.

12 Viscous Decay Model 1. Start with the equations for the turbulent kinetic energy and the perturbation potential energy. 2. Obtain an expression for the rate of change in wave energy owing to viscous dissipation (neglecting wavewave interactions) 3. Given an initial wave amplitude and propagation speed, what is the expected amplitude at a height z following viscous dissipation.
13 Viscous Decay Model Define wave energy, W=KE+PE W t + (W c g)=ν d2 W dz 2 2ν k 2 W Neglect viscous diffusion, assume c g (linearized) DW Dt = 2ν k 2 W D/Dt is time derivative following c g In a stationary frame in terms of vertical velocity amplitude: A(z) =A k k exp[ νω k h (ω 2 f 2 ) 1/2 z k 4 (N 2 ω 2 ) 1/2 dz ] Given the initial amplitude, A (k h, ω), we can predict A(k h, ω,z)

15 Looking Ahead... Consider a time-dependent outer layer flow (tides or waves). How is the bottom boundary layer affected by lateral density gradients? Study the stability of a directional shear in a stratified fluid. Apply the internal wave model to other flows, e.g. stratified wakes, topographic generation.
