Macroturbulent Equilibration in a Thermally Forced Primitive Equation System
A major question for climate studies is to quantify the role of turbulent eddy fluxes in maintaining the observed ocean-atmosphere state. It has been argued that eddy fluxes keep the midlatitude atmosphere in a state that is marginally critical to baroclinic instability, which provides a powerful co...
