Research paper thumbnail of Estimates of Turbulence Intensity and Power Density of an Asymmetric Tidal Current under Wind Forcing Variability

Five tidal cycles covering calm and storm periods are selected from the measurements. The effect of the tidal cycle asymmetry and the wind forcing variability on the turbulence intensity, Reynolds stresses, and the current energy characteristics is estimated. It is shown that the power density of the tidal flow is twice as low during the storm period than during the calm period. Wave filtering in calculating Reynolds stresses made it possible to estimate the contribution of small-scale turbulence to its intensity.

A new parametrization of oil droplet flux into water has been elaborated based on a number of recent experimental studies on wind waves and oil droplet dispersion during wave breaking. The turnover rate (TOR) of the sea surface is proposed to determine the primary flux of oil droplets into water. The parameter of lognormal distribution (median) of oil droplets is calculated versus their sizes in a wide range of oil density, viscosity, interfacial tension, and wind speed.

The quantity of oil returning to the surface due to positive buoyancy in the time between wind wave overturns is estimated. The role of vertical turbulent exchange as a factor limiting oil droplet flux from the sea surface into the water column is discussed.

On 20 April 2010, the Macondo oil well experienced a massive blowout, causing the explosion and collapse of the DWH. Th e explosion and subsequent sinking of the rig on 22 April began what has become the largest off shore oil spill in U.S. history. Large amounts of crude oil and gas gushed from a well blowout at the ocean bottom (~1500 m depth) into the Gulf of Mexico (GoM) for nearly 3 months. For this period, approximately 4.9 million barrels (~668360 metric tones) of oil from the Macondo well [1] to which BP added 1.84 million gallons (~5980 metric tones) of dispersants have been released into the Gulf.

An example was Hurricane Katrina which damaged or destroyed thirty oil platforms and caused the closure of nine refi neries 1 . Katrina was one of the fi ve deadliest hurricanes in US history causing at least 1833 fatalities. It made (a second) landfall in southeastern Louisiana on August 29 th , 2005. Much of the damage to New Orleans was caused by the large storm surges which destroyed and damaged many levees surrounding the city 2 . Katrina's powerful eye wall winds caused intense vertical mixing, upwelling and latent heat fl uxes.Katrina's intensity increased as it swept across the Gulf, encountering a large Loop Current eddy, which provided an additional source of heat energy. Th e ensuing changes in the upper water column temperature structure may have infl uenced the fate and properties of Hurricane Rita which followed a very similar path just three weeks later. Hurricane Rita was the fourth-most intense Atlantic hurricane ever recorded and the most intense tropical cyclone ever observed in the Gulf of Mexico. It made landfall in Sabine, Texas on September 24 th , 2005 and led to much damage and 120 reported deaths 3 . Sheng et al. [2] modeled the oceanographic response to Hurricane Juan.
