Toward Realistic Nonstationarity of Semidiurnal Baroclinic Tides in a Hydrodynamic Model
(GODAE OceanViewWiley Periodicals, Inc., 2019-09)
Semidiurnal baroclinic tide sea surface height (SSH) variance and semidiurnal nonstationary variance fraction (SNVF) are compared between a hydrodynamic model and altimetry for the low‐ to middle‐latitude global ocean. ...
Eigenvalues of the Thurston operator
(AK PetersWiley Periodicals, Inc., 2020-09)
Let f:Ĉ→Ĉ be a postcritically finite rational map, and let Q(Ĉ) be the space of meromorphic quadratic differentials on Ĉ with simple poles. We study the set of eigenvalues of the pushforward operator f∗:Q(Ĉ)→Q(Ĉ). ...
