Includes bibliographical references and index. Introduction: Simulations of natural flows in the laboratory and on a computer -- Part 1. Baroclinic-driven flows -- General circulation of planetary atmospheres: Insights from rotating annulus and related experiments -- Primary flow transitions in the Baroclinic Annulus: Prandtl number effects -- Amplitude vacillation in Baroclinic flows -- Part 2. Balanced and unbalanced flows -- Rotation effects on wall-bounded flows: Some laboratory experiments -- Altimetry in a GFD laboratory and flows on the polar -plane -- Instabilities of shallow-water flows with vertical shear in the rotating annulus -- Laboratory experiments on flows over bottom topography -- Direct numerical simulations of laboratory-scale stratified turbulence -- Part 3. Atmospheric flows -- Numerical simulation (DNS, LES) of geophysical laboratory experiments: Quasi-biennial oscillation (QBO) analogue and simulations toward Madden-Julian oscillation (MJO) analogue -- Internal waves in laboratory experiments -- Frontal instabilities at density-shear interfaces in rotating two-layer stratified fluids -- Part 4. Oceanic flows -- Large-amplitude coastal shelf waves -- Laboratory experiments with abrupt thermohaline transitions and oscillations -- Oceanic island wake flows in the laboratory -- Part 5. Advances in methodology -- Lagrangian methods in experimental fluid mechanics -- A high-resolution method for direct numerical simulation of instabilities and transitions in a Baroclinic cavity -- Orthogonal decomposition methods to analyze PIV, LDV, and thermography data of thermally driven rotating annulus laboratory experiments. Provides a broad overview of recent progress in using laboratory experiments and numerical simulations to model atmospheric and oceanic fluid motions. This volume not only surveys novel research topics in laboratory experimentation, but also highlights recent developments in the corresponding computational simulations. As computing power grows exponentially and better numerical codes are developed, the interplay between numerical simulations and laboratory experiments is gaining paramount importance within the scientific community.--Provided by publisher Atmospheric physics. ; Oceanography. aLarcher, Thomas von, ; eeditor. ; aWilliams, Paul D. ; q(Paul David), ; d1977- ; eeditor.
