    Description: 〈title xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML"〉Abstract〈/title〉〈p xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xml:lang="en"〉For both the meso‐ and synoptic scales, reduced mathematical models give insight into their dynamical behaviour. For the mesoscale, the weak temperature gradient approximation is one of several approaches, while for the synoptic scale the quasigeostrophic theory is well established. However, the way these two scales interact with each other is usually not included in such reduced models, thereby limiting our current perception of flow‐dependent predictability and upscale error growth. Here, we address the scale interactions explicitly by developing a two‐scale asymptotic model for the meso‐ and synoptic scales with two coupled sets of equations for the meso‐ and synoptic scales respectively. The mesoscale equations follow a weak temperature gradient balance and the synoptic‐scale equations align with quasigeostrophic theory. Importantly, the equation sets are coupled via scale‐interaction terms: eddy correlations of mesoscale variables impact the synoptic potential vorticity tendency and synoptic variables force the mesoscale vorticity (for instance due to tilting of synoptic‐scale wind shear). Furthermore, different diabatic heating rates—representing the effect of precipitation—define different flow characteristics. With weak mesoscale heating relatable to precipitation rates of 〈mml:math id="jats-math-1" display="inline" overflow="scroll"〉〈mml:mrow〉〈mml:mi〉𝒪〈/mml:mi〉〈mml:mo stretchy="false"〉(〈/mml:mo〉〈mml:mn〉6〈/mml:mn〉〈mml:mspace width="0.3em"/〉〈mml:mtext〉mm〈/mml:mtext〉〈mml:mo〉·〈/mml:mo〉〈mml:msup〉〈mml:mrow〉〈mml:mi mathvariant="normal"〉h〈/mml:mi〉〈/mml:mrow〉〈mml:mrow〉〈mml:mo form="prefix"〉−〈/mml:mo〉〈mml:mn〉1〈/mml:mn〉〈/mml:mrow〉〈/mml:msup〉〈mml:mo stretchy="false"〉)〈/mml:mo〉〈/mml:mrow〉〈/mml:math〉, the mesoscale dynamics resembles two‐dimensional incompressible vorticity dynamics and the upscale impact of the mesoscale on the synoptic scale is only of a dynamical nature.

    Notes: Simplified asymptotic equations describing the nonlinear dynamics of perturbed pairs of parallel vortex filaments are derived and analyzed here. The derivations are general enough to allow for vortices of unequal strength, but emphasis here is on the antiparallel vortex pair. The simplified asymptotic equations account for both the internal effects of self-induction and self-stretching for each filament and also the external effects of mutual induction that lead to a nontrivial coupling of the perturbations of the two filaments. When these nonlinear equations are linearized at the unperturbed filament pair, the linearized stability theory of Crow [AIAA J. 8, 2172 (1970)] is recovered in a systematic fashion. The asymptotic equations are derived in a novel singular limit at high Reynolds numbers through assumptions similar to the authors' recent theories [Physica D 49, 323 (1991); ibid. 53, 267 (1991); Phys. Fluids A 4, 2271 (1992)] for the dynamics of a single perturbed vortex filament. Through the Hasimoto transform [J. Fluid Mech. 51, 477 (1972)], these equations become two coupled perturbed nonlinear Schrödinger equations for a pair of filament functions. A series of numerical solutions of the asymptotic equations exhibits several new phenomena in the nonlinear instability of pairs of antiparallel vortex filaments.

    Notes: Recently, two of the authors have derived [Physica D 49, 323 (1991)] and analyzed [Physica D 53, 267 (1991)] a new asymptotic equation for the evolution of small-amplitude short-wavelength perturbations of slender vortex filaments in high Reynolds number flows. This asymptotic equation differs significantly from the familiar local self-induction equation in that it includes some of the nonlocal effects of self-stretching of the filament in a simple fashion. Here, through systematic asymptotic expansions, the authors derive a modification of this asymptotic equation that incorporates the important additional effects of strain and rotation from a general background flow field. The main requirement on the background flow is that it does not displace the unperturbed background filament. The new asymptotic equations exhibit in a simple fashion the direct competition in filament dynamics between internal effects such as self-induction and self-stretching and external effects of background flows involving strain and rotation. Solutions of these asymptotic equations revealing various aspects of this competition are analyzed in detail through both theory and numerical simulation. An application is also presented for the nonlinear stability of a columnar vortex to suitable perturbations in a straining, rotating, background environment.

    Notes: The numerical description of slender vortex motion faces several major obstacles: (i) The stiffness induced by the rapid rotatory motion in the vortex core, where peak velocities are an order of magnitude larger than the filament velocity. In a vorticity-velocity formulation, this stiffness is reflected by the singular behavior of the line-Biot-Savart integral as one approaches the vortex geometry. Regularization occurs physically by viscous smoothing of the vorticity. (ii) The vortex core vorticity distribution has a crucial influence on the vortex filament motion. Thus, an accurate description of the core structure evolution due to vortex stretching and vorticity diffusion is necessary. We propose a numerical scheme that allows an accurate description of the effects of axial flow in the core, viscosity and vortex stretching on slender vortex filament motion. The approach is based on incorporating the detailed asymptotic analyses of the vortex core structure evolution by Callegari and Ting [SIAM J. Appl. Math. 15, 148 (1978)] and Klein and Ting [Appl. Math. Lett. 8, 45 (1995)] for stretched viscous slender vortices into the improved thin-tube vortex element schemes of Klein and Knio (1995). The resulting schemes overcome the difficulties mentioned above except for the issue of temporal stiffness, which we leave for future work. © 1996 American Institute of Physics.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Die vorliegende Arbeit beschreibt das Geschwindigkeitsfeld fernab einer Wirbelverteilung, welche mit dem Abstandr vom Ursprung eines geeigneten Bezugssystems hinreichend schnell abklingt. Die Geschwindigkeit besitzt ein Vektorpotential, dessen Fernfeldverhalten einer Reihenentwicklung ΣA (n), genügt. Dabei istA (n) proportional zur −n−1 fürn=1, 2, .... Wir entwickeln eine explizite Darstellung vonA (n) als Linearkombination vonM n linear unabhängigen Vektorfunktionen. Die auftretenden Koeffizienten sind ihrerseits Kombinationenn-ter Momente der Wirbelverteilung. Die ZahlM 1 ist gleich 3 und es istM n=4n fürn≥2, während die Gesamtzahl dernten Momente $$\frac{3}{2}(n + 1)(n + 2)$$ beträgt. Weiterhin zeigen wir, da\ nur 2n+1 dieser Vektorfunktionen auch zum drehungsfreien Fernfeld der Geschwindigkeitn-ter Ordnung beitragen können und identifizieren die zugehörigen Kombinationen von Wirbelmomenten. Dieselben Kombinationen liefern dann auch die Koeffizienten in einer Entwicklung desskalaren Fernfeldpotentials nach Kugelfunktionen.
    Notes: Abstract We study the velocity field induced by a vorticity distribution decaying rapidly in the distancer from the origin. In the far field, the vector potential for the velocity field can be represented by a series ΣA (n), withA (n) proportional tor −n−1, forn=1, 2, .... We show thatA (n) can be expressed as a linear combination ofM n linearly independent vector functions. The numberM n is equal to 3 forn=1 and 4n forn≥2 and the coefficient of a vector function is defined by a linear combination of $$\frac{3}{2}(n + 1)(n + 2)$$ nth moments of vorticity. We then show that only 2n+1 linear combinations of thoseM n vector functions contribute to the far field velocity which is irrotational. The corresponding scalar potential Φ (n) is then represented by a linear combination of 2n+1 spherical harmonics ofnth order whose coefficients are again linear combinations ofnth moments of vorticity.

    Description: As present weather forecast codes and increasingly many atmospheric climate models resolve at least part of the mesoscale flow, and hence also internal gravity waves (GWs), it is natural to ask whether even in such configurations subgrid-scale GWs might impact the resolved flow and how their effect could be taken into account. This motivates a theoretical and numerical investigation of the interactions between unresolved submesoscale and resolved mesoscale GWs, using Boussinesq dynamics for simplicity. By scaling arguments, first a subset of submesoscale GWs that can indeed influence the dynamics of mesoscale GWs is identified. Therein, hydrostatic GWs with wavelengths corresponding to the largest unresolved scales of present-day limited-area weather forecast models are an interesting example. A large-amplitude WKB theory, allowing for a mesoscale unbalanced flow, is then formulated, based on multiscale asymptotic analysis utilizing a proper scale-separation parameter. Purely vertical propagation of submesoscale GWs is found to be most important, implying inter alia that the resolved flow is only affected by the vertical flux convergence of submesoscale horizontal momentum at leading order. In turn, submesoscale GWs are refracted by mesoscale vertical wind shear while conserving their wave-action density. An efficient numerical implementation of the theory uses a phase-space ray tracer, thus handling the frequent appearance of caustics. The WKB approach and its numerical implementation are validated successfully against submesoscale-resolving simulations of the resonant radiation of mesoscale inertia GWs by a horizontally as well as vertically confined submesoscale GW packet.

    Description: The compressible flow equations for a moist, multicomponent fluid constitute the most comprehensive description of atmospheric dynamics used in meteorological practice. Yet, compressibility effects are often considered weak and acoustic waves outright unimportant in the atmosphere, except possibly for Lamb waves on very large scales. This has led to the development of “soundproof” models, which suppress sound waves entirely and provide good approximations for small-scale to mesoscale motions. Most global flow models are based instead on the hydrostatic primitive equations that only suppress vertically propagating acoustic modes and are applicable to relatively large-scale motions. Generalized models have been proposed that combine the advantages of the hydrostatic primitive and the soundproof equation sets. In this note, the authors reveal close relationships between the compressible, pseudoincompressible (soundproof), hydrostatic primitive, and the Arakawa and Konor unified model equations by introducing a continuous two-parameter (i.e., “doubly blended”) family of models that defaults to either of these limiting cases for particular parameter constellations.
