Impulse exchange at the surface of the ocean and the fractal dimension of drifter trajectories.
Journal Article
Summers, D. (2002)
Impulse exchange at the surface of the ocean and the fractal dimension of drifter trajectories. Nonlinear Processes in Geophysics. 9, 11-23. doi:10.5194/npg-9-11-2002. ISSN 1023-5809
An impulse-based model is developed to represent a coupling between turbulent flow in the atmosphere and turbulent flow in the ocean. In particular, it is argued that the atmo...
