P4: Lagrangian Analysis of Two- and Three-Dimensional Oceanic Flows from Eulerian Velocity Data
Author: David Russell , Advisor: Kayo Ide (AOSC)
Problem Statement Presentation
Project Proposal
Abstract
In this project, we will design the tools to conduct a Lagrangian analysis of an oceanic ow whose velocity is proscribed on a spatio-temporal grid. Our main tools in this analysis will be the so-called M-function (arclength over a fixed time interval) and the maximal finite-time Lyapunov exponent, both of which help elucidate the underlying coherent structures of the fow. After validating them, we will test these tools on a dataset coming from a model flow of the Chesapeake Bay.
