Horizontal Dispersion of Buoyant Materials in the Ocean Surface Boundary Layer 1

Abstract:

In this talk, I will discuss our recent study that uses a Large eddy simulation model for ocean surface gravity wave filtered incompressible Navier-Stokes equation to study how buoyant material spreads in the upper ocean. The results of the study will improve the prediction of the pathway of marine pollutants such as spilled oil and microplastics.
