Parameterization of ocean eddies: potential vorticity mixing, energetics and Arnold's first stability theorem
A family of eddy closures is studied that flux potential vorticity down-gradient and solve an explicit budget for the eddy energy, following the approach developed by Eden and Greatbatch (2008, Ocean Modelling). The aim of this manuscript is to demonstrate that when energy relates naturally to the i...
