Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of marine dynamics technology, and in particular to a method for analyzing the energy exchange between mesoscale eddies and near-inertial internal waves in the ocean. Background Technology

[0002] Energy exchange between mesoscale eddies and near-inertial internal waves is the core mechanism of ocean energy cascade, which is crucial for driving ocean turbulent mixing, maintaining circulation structure, and regulating the global climate system. This type of technology is based on satellite remote sensing, on-site observation, or ocean reanalysis flow field data. It often uses frequency domain filtering to separate flow field components and kinetic energy difference estimation to attempt to analyze the energy transfer relationship between mesoscale eddies and near-inertial internal waves. The output results are mainly used in ocean circulation simulation, turbulent mixing mechanism research, and global climate system regulation law analysis.

[0003] However, when quantifying the energy exchange process between mesoscale eddies and near-inertial internal waves, a quantitative description of the coupling mechanism between Reynolds stress and background current strain rate is generally lacking, resulting in the following shortcomings: First, traditional methods estimate energy exchange solely through kinetic energy differences, completely ignoring the dynamic control effect of the strain field. The simplified calculation formulas used cannot capture the modulation effect of the anisotropy of near-inertial internal wave velocity fluctuations on energy transfer, leading to an overestimation of the energy exchange intensity in the eddy normal strain-dominated region by more than 20%, and a significant systematic bias in the calculation of the energy exchange rate. Second, in determining the direction of energy transfer, only the sign of energy changes is relied upon, without considering the coupling effect between the strain field and near-inertial velocity fluctuations, which easily leads to misjudgment of the eddy-wave energy transfer direction, directly causing a systematic underestimation of the energy input term in the ocean energy cascade model. Third, the above-mentioned biases and misjudgments ultimately lead to serious distortion in the ocean energy balance analysis, severely restricting the parameterization accuracy of the energy input in the ocean circulation model, and failing to provide accurate and reliable quantitative technical support for the study of multi-scale energy interactions in the ocean.

[0074] The embodiments of the present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0075] Existing technologies for analyzing energy exchange between mesoscale eddies and near-inertial internal waves in the ocean generally lack a quantitative description of the coupling mechanism between the Reynolds stress of near-inertial currents and the strain rate of the background current of mesoscale eddies. They rely solely on simplistic estimations based on kinetic energy differences, which fail to capture the modulation effect of the anisotropy of near-inertial internal wave velocity fluctuations on energy transfer. This leads to a systematic overestimation of the energy exchange intensity in the eddy strain-dominated region and frequent misjudgments of the transfer direction. Furthermore, the lack of a standardized quantitative analysis system for the entire process results in significant deviations in energy exchange calculations and unclear physical mechanisms, severely restricting the parameterization accuracy of energy inputs in ocean circulation models and the development of ocean energy cascade research.

[0076] Based on the above analysis, this invention is designed, see appendix. Figure 1 A method for analyzing the energy exchange between ocean mesoscale eddies and near-inertial internal waves includes the following steps:

[0078] In step S1, based on the spatiotemporal range characteristics of the target mesoscale eddy region, the spatiotemporal range of the high-resolution three-dimensional flow field data is set to be larger than the target mesoscale eddy region. At the same time, the high-resolution three-dimensional flow field data is interpolated to the ocean standard layer in the depth direction to complete the data standardization preprocessing and obtain standardized three-dimensional flow field data containing meridional and zonal velocity information.

[0100] The specific steps of S4 include:

[0101] S41, Longitude based on the target mesoscale vortex region and latitude The latitude and longitude grid spacing of the flow field data is converted to metric actual distance using the following formula:

[0113] S5, based on the Reynolds stress component of S3 and the horizontal strain rate component of S4, are quantitatively calculated by substituting them into the preset energy exchange equation to obtain the energy exchange rate between the mesoscale eddy and the near-inertial flow.

[0114] The specific steps of S5 include:

[0115] S51, the Reynolds stress components from step S33 , , Strain rate components of S43 , As input parameters to the equation, an energy exchange equation is constructed, and the equation formula is as follows:

[0116] ;

[0117] in, Energy exchange rate;

[0118] S52. Substitute the input parameters into the energy exchange equation in S51 and perform point-by-point and time-by-time calculations to obtain the output parameter, energy exchange rate. Energy exchange rate A physical quantity that varies with space, time, and depth.

[0119] S6. Based on the energy exchange rate of S5, the depth and time are integrated by combining the seawater density to obtain the net energy exchange between the mesoscale eddy and the near-inertial internal wave and to determine the direction of energy transfer.

[0120] The specific steps of S6 include:

[0121] S61. Collect seawater temperature, salinity, and pressure data in the target mesoscale eddy region, and input them into the seawater state equation UNESCOEOS-80 to calculate the seawater density as a function of space, time, and depth. ;

[0122] S62. Determine the depth range of influence of the target mesoscale eddy. and time range And based on the energy exchange rate of S52 Seawater density with S61 The formulas for depth integration and time integration are as follows:

[0123] ;

[0124] in, Net energy exchange rate; For the time period and depth The specific values ​​of energy exchange between mesoscale eddies and near-inertial internal waves within the range;

[0125] S63, Based on net energy exchange The sign of the value determines the direction of energy transfer: when When the value is positive, energy is transferred from the mesoscale eddy to the near-inertial internal wave; when... When the value is negative, energy is transferred from near-inertial internal waves to mesoscale eddies.

[0126] Based on a specific embodiment of the above steps, this invention selects two anticyclones in a certain sea area during summer, determines the target mesoscale vortex region based on satellite remote sensing and typhoon data, and roughly estimates that the movement range of these two anticyclones in July is approximately between 14°N and 19°N and between 110°E and 116°E. During this period, the passing of typhoons excites strong near-inertial internal waves, and the energy exchange between the anticyclones and the near-inertial internal waves is calculated.

[0127] Specifically, high-resolution three-dimensional flow field data for July were collected, covering a rectangular region with a spatiotemporal range larger than the estimated area (13°N to 20°N, 109°E to 116°E). Data preprocessing was performed, and the 40 layers of 0.083° × 0.083° high-resolution data provided by the reanalysis data were vertically interpolated to the standard layer. Based on sea surface height anomaly (SLA) data provided by satellite altimeters, a mesoscale eddy time distribution map of this region was plotted, as shown below. Figure 2-9 As shown.

[0128] Subsequently, the original meridional and zonal velocity field data were extracted. The baroclinic velocity was separated by depth averaging and removed from the original flow field to obtain the baroclinic velocity, thus eliminating the interference of the baroclinic flow field on subsequent analysis. Then, based on the latitude of the target area, the inertial frequency was calculated, and a fourth-order Butterworth bandpass filter was designed to filter the baroclinic velocity, accurately separating the meridional and zonal components of the near-inertial flow from the meridional and zonal components of the background flow.

[0129] For the near-inertial velocity obtained by filtering, the self-multiplication and mutual multiplication values ​​of the velocity are first calculated, and then the inertial period is calculated based on the local inertial frequency. A sliding window covering three inertial periods is selected for time moving average, and finally three key Reynolds stress components are obtained. For the separated background flow velocity, the latitude and longitude grid spacing is first converted to the actual distance in meters, and then the four spatial partial derivatives of the background flow velocity are calculated using the second-order central difference scheme. Based on this, the normal strain rate component and the tangential strain rate component in the horizontal direction are obtained. Finally, the Reynolds stress component and the strain rate component are substituted into the energy exchange coupling equation constructed in this invention to complete the point-by-point, time-by-time, and depth-varying energy exchange rate calculation in the target area, realizing a refined solution of the vortex-wave energy exchange process.

[0130] Based on seawater temperature, salinity, and pressure data of the target area, the spatiotemporally dynamic seawater density was calculated using the UNESCO EOS-80 seawater state equation. This density was then combined with the energy exchange rate, and a double integral of depth and time was performed within the depth and time range of the vortex influence to obtain the net energy exchange between the two anticyclones and the near-inertial internal wave. Furthermore, the positive and negative characteristics of the integral results accurately determined the direction of energy transfer between the mesoscale vortex and the near-inertial internal wave. (See also...) Figure 10-13 As shown in the figure, this embodiment also selected four representative points inside and outside the vortex to intuitively present the spatiotemporal distribution law of vortex-wave energy exchange. This not only verifies the adaptability of the method to the analysis of vortex-wave energy exchange under the influence of typhoons, but also proves the operability and promotion value of the method in actual ocean dynamics research.

[0131] In summary, by constructing a standardized analysis method covering the entire process—from selecting the target vortex region, preprocessing flow field data, and achieving high-precision frequency domain separation of near-inertial and background flows, to accurately solving Reynolds stress and strain rate, modeling the energy exchange equations of their nonlinear coupling, and finally quantifying net energy exchange and determining the direction of transfer—this method achieves high-precision, systematic quantitative analysis of the direction and intensity of energy exchange between mesoscale eddies and near-inertial internal waves. It also reveals the physical nature of eddy-wave energy exchange, provides high-precision energy input parameters for ocean circulation models, and improves the reliability of ocean thermohaline circulation and climate system simulations. Furthermore, the method is compatible with multi-source data such as satellite altimeters, ocean reanalysis, and field observations, constructing a general technical framework. This method solves the problems of quantification distortion and unclear mechanism analysis of eddy-wave energy exchange in ocean energy cascade studies, achieving a technological breakthrough from empirical estimation to precise quantitative description in the analysis of energy exchange between ocean mesoscale eddies and near-inertial internal waves. It provides core methodological and theoretical support for related research and applications in the field of ocean dynamics.
