  4. Joe Tribbia (ESSL-CGD & GTP), with Jim McWilliams (UCLA-GTP) Pathway to dissipation in the atmosphere and ocean Thermal / mechanical driving on planetary scale Thin instabilities (baroclinic, frontal) drive inertial cascades to non-rotational scales Further instabilities (K-H, convective) needed to get to 3D isotropic turbulence and dissipation, and transport processes No complete GFD simulation to date. It must span a 2D range from 106 m to 10-100m (3D Turbulence), waves and anisotropy (rotation and/or stratification and/or magnetic fields and/or bottom topography …)

  38. Thanks to the team!And thank you all for your attention

  39. As an example: Summary of the GTP workshop on Turbulence & Scalar Transport in Roughness Sub-layers (RSLs)Jielun Sun et al., ESSL-MMM • Types of roughness elements considered include: • Vegetated canopies • Urban and suburban environments • Underwater plant communities • Ocean waves • Wind farms • Although there are similarities, profound differences in turbulence structures are found among these RSLs depending on rigidity and porosity of roughness elements • Over-ocean RSLs are strongly affected by speed and direction of swell and can impact the entire PBL. • Imprint of urban geometry greatly impacts turbulence structures in RSL due to building shapes and distributions. • Underwater RSLs due to aquatic vegetation can fill entire channel depth. Past, present & future experiments: e.g., HATS, O-HATS, C-HATS, A-HATS (Horizontal Array Turbulence Studies, + Oceans, Canopies, Anisotropy)
