The eddy-background flow interaction and the underlying energy transfer processes in the North Pacific storm track
In this seminar, I would talk on the potential efforts which have been put to comprehend a set of novel mathematical tools including a functional analysis apparatus namely the multiscale window transform (MWT), the MWT-based canonical transfer analysis, and the localized multi-scale energetics analysis to explore a variety of processes in the atmosphere and the oceans, especially focusing on the multiscale interactions and energy transfers in the mid-latitude atmospheric storm tracks. Interestingly, you will find, using these tools it has been revealed that the eddy–background flow interaction in the North Pacific storm track has a north-south asymmetry. I will be covering here all the necessarily details (recently published) to unravel what is really happening locally in the North Pacific storm track, especially the spatial-temporal structure of the interaction between individual mid-latitude synoptic eddies and the background flow and the eddy feedback on the background flow.
