Full textMarseille coastal zone is a contrasted area which is submitted to many inputs of nutrients and organic matter by the Rhone, by discharges from the Marseille city and the atmosphere. The objective of this study was to develop, validate and use a 3D coupled physical/biogeochemical model to study the impact of different hydrodynamic forcings (upwelling, anticyclonic eddy (ME), intrusion of the Northern Current ...) on the ecosystem, in particular the modulation of natural and anthropogenic inputs by these forcings. In this coastal zone, model development highlighted that improving the accuracy of hydrodynamics and terrestrial input was more benefit rather than complicating the biogeochemical model. Comparison with field measurements showed that even if the model have some defaults, it reproduces well enough chlorophyll-a and nutrients. The study of realistic simulations, satellite images and sea campaigns measurements provided information on the spatial and temporal characteristics of this coastal zone. This area is characterized by seasonal variations, but also by a strong daily variability due to very intense and short-lived hydrodynamic and terrestrial forcings. The information acquired during this thesis, including through the use of mass budgets, allowed to propose a hierarchy of the impacts on the biogeochemistry of the studied events occurring across the Bay of Marseilles and the coastal zone. Finally, hydrodynamic forcings appeared to mainly export the anthropogenic and terrigenous inputs offshore which maintained the oligotrophic state in most of the coastal zone, except near the mouth of the Rhone River

Full textThe Northern Humboldt Current system (NHCS) represents less than 0.1% of the world ocean surface but produces more fish, mainly Peruvian anchovy (Engraulis ringens), per unit area than any other region in the world. Although this system produces enough macrozooplankton to feed its high production of forage fish, the paucity of information on zooplankton hampers research in the system. The objective of this study was to investigate the multiscale dynamics of the spatiotemporal distribution of the macrozooplankton biomass off Peru in relation to the physical environment and their fish predators. For that a bi-frequency acoustic method was developed and applied to extract, from historical acoustic data, high-resolution information on the biomass and the patterns of distribution of macrozooplankton, the pelagic red squad 'munida', fish and other marine compartments. This method also allows estimating the vertical extension of this epipelagic community (ZVEEC). We demonstrated that ZVEEC coincide with the upper limit of the oxygen minimum zone (OMZ), which allowed both producing high-resolution spatial data of the upper limit of the OMZ and estimating the volume habitat of anchovy. The estimated macrozooplankton biomass was about four times higher than previously reported. This estimate is in agreement with the recent findings on forage fish trophic ecology and supports the current hypotheses explaining the NHCS high fish production. The study of the impacts of the submeso- and mesoscale physical structures on macrozooplankton provided evidence of the bottom-up physical effect on the distribution of macrozooplankton biomass. We also found further evidence of the structuring bottom-up effect that macrozooplankton exert on forage fish. The high-resolution biological and physical data obtained in this study opens new perspective to perform integrated multiscale ecological studies and to calibrate biogeochemical, trophic and End-to-End models

Full textThe present work focuses on improving the atmospheric forcing function used to drive ocean general circulation hindcasts of the last five decades. First, the behavior of the main parameterizations used to estimate surface fluxes that provide surface boundary conditions to OGCMs is studied in detail. The NEMO ocean/sea-ice model is then used at a 2° coarse resolution to validate atmospheric datasets especially designed to drive the DRAKKAR hierarchy of high-resolution models. These new datasets include, over the period 1958-2004, corrected surface atmospheric fields from ERA-40, a modified satellite radiation product from the ISCCP, and precipitation fields merging different global products. Relevant diagnostics tend to confirm that the simulation of several key features of the ocean circulation are significantly improved while driving DRAKKAR models with these new forcing sets

Chabert, Pierre. "Impact of Synoptic Wind Variability on the Dynamics and Planktonic Ecosystem of the South Senegalese Upwelling Sector." Electronic Thesis or Diss., Sorbonne université, 2023. http://www.theses.fr/2023SORUS096.
Full textIn addition to the wind seasonal cycle, Eastern Boundary Upwelling Systems undergo fluctuations at shorter synoptic to intraseasonal time scales. This thesis focuses on the impact of synoptic wind intensifications and relaxations with a period of 5-10 days on the dynamics and planktonic ecosystem of the South Senegalese Upwelling Sector (SSUS). This system is located south of the sharp Cape Verde peninsula which acts as an abrupt coastline break and has a particularly shallow continental shelf. We aim to bring additional knowledge on this important coastal upwelling system that has received little attention, especially at synoptic time scales. To investigate this, we develop a modeling framework that involves applying idealized synoptic wind intensification and relaxation to an ensemble of climatological SSUS states. Synoptic fluctuations impact all dynamical variables out of their intrinsic variability range and shape robust anomalies of SSUS-scale and mesoscale spatial patterns. Using a mixed layer heat bud- get over the shelf, we identify the importance of horizontal processes in the SSUS heat variability and the very localized importance of vertical processes. Plankton biomass are found to oscillate in space and time in response to synoptic wind fluctuations. The atmospheric perturbation is damped during its propagation towards the upper trophic levels of the ecosystem. The response of the planktonic ecosystem is complex and heterogeneous over the shelf, with a distinctive inner shelf behavior. A diatoms budget reveals that their biomass is primarily controlled by primary production, zooplankton grazing and mortality-aggregation. The balance between these processes is responsible for the oscillatory responses of the diatoms biomass to synoptic wind events. All dynamical and biogeochemical variables exhibit modest asymmetries between wind intensification and relaxation responses. This brings support to the hypothesis that synoptic variability has a modest net impact on the climatological mean state. The implications of our results for future research questions are discussed, including the importance of biogeochemical observations and advances in plankton ecosystem modeling

Full textThe representation in numerical models of dense shelf water formation and interaction between sea ice, ocean, and atmosphere are essential for realistic simulation of bottom water mass and thermohaline circulation. The purpose of this work is to improve the representation of basic processes controling the formation and modification of shelf dense water in Antarctic like sea ice, ice shelves and forcing fields in NEMO ocean/sea-ice model. Series of realistic simulations show that fine tuning for the sea ice model, ice shelf parametrization, and katabatic winds correction have a positive impact on simulated sea ice, polynya and shelf water properties. However, these improvements are not able to correct all initial flaws. Other simulations are carried out, to test the effect of adifferent atmospheric forcing obtained from a regional downscaling of global reanalysis ERA40 in Antarctic area, performed with a regional mesoscale atmospheric model. This work shows that turbulent atmospheric variables (temperature, humidity and wind) have a strong positive impacts on sea ice and shelf water properties. This impact is greater that the tuning, parametrization and correction performed previously. Nevertheless, great effort are yet necessary to produce the regional forcing fields that sea-ice and ice shelves require

Full textDeposition of particles on a wall plays a significant role in fluid-solid processes such as inclusions recovery from liquid steel in ladle furnace, that controls inclusion cleanliness upstream from solidification. The aim of this work is to study the turbulent deposition and capture of particles on a wall, in a situation where turbulence in the boundary layer originates both from wall shear and from agitation in the external flow. In a ladle furnace, such an agitation would result from bubble injection. A framework for simulations at mesoscopic scale in which particles are represented as points but the turbulence is fully resolved has been developped using an in-house solver, where a Lattice Boltzmann Method (LBM) solves flow dynamics and linear isotropic forcing generates artificial turbulence. Lagrangian Particle Tracking (LPT) is used to achieve one way coupling between particle motions and turbulent flow. These numerical methods were applied to Direct Numerical simulation (DNS) of a fully developed turbulent boundary layer in which particles smaller than the Kolmogorov length scale are introduced. The deposition mechanisms in aerosol conditions have been analyzed and quantified into a statistical law for deposition velocity in terms of Stokes number, and validated against data from the literature. Such simulations have provided a better understanding of deposition and capture mechanisms, depending on the turbulent flow in a wall boundary layer and on particle physical properties. Also, preliminary simulations in hydrosol conditions that match actual ladle operation have shown that the framework developed in this work can be applied to investigate inclusion behavior in secondary steel-making although statistical analysis in this work focused on aerosols

Full textWe analyse the variability of winter upper circulation in the southern Bay of Biscay from satellite and in situ observations and numerical simulations based on the SYMPHONIE code. We aim to get a better insight on the high frequency dynamics (a few hours to a few days) due to atmospheric forcing and estimate the adequacy of available tools to observe and simulate these processes. We first determine whether a coastal altimetric dataset (based on TOPEX/Poseidon and Jason-1 alongtrack data) can detect occurrences of a slope current (the Iberian Poleward Current, IPC). The results show the ability of altimetry to monitor IPC pulses under any atmospheric conditions or when the SST signature is weak, that makes it as an essential component for the IPC observing system in addition to satellite SST and mooring data. Then, we analyse the ocean response to storm Klaus that occurred on January 24th 2009 and its representation in a numerical simulation. More specifically, we characterize the response in temperature and salinity and the vertical mixing processes, the response in surface currents and the surge associated to the windstorm. The realism of the numerical simulation to represent these processes is evaluated by comparisons with satellite and in situ observations. Besides, a large part of the study is dedicated to improve the numerical simulations making several tests on parametrisations

Full textPhytoplankton are one of the first links in the food web and generate up to 50% of the world's primary production. The study of phytoplankton and their physical environment requires observations with a resolution of less than a day and a kilometer, as well as the consideration of the heterogeneous types of data involved and the spatio-temporal dependency structures of marine ecosystems.This thesis aims to develop statistical methods in this context by using technologies such as automated flow cytometry. Theoretical developments focused on Deep Gaussian Mixture Models (DGMM) introduced by Viroli and McLachlan (2019). To better characterize phytoplankton ecological niches, we extended these models to mixed data (exhibiting continuous and non-continuous variables) often found in oceanography. A clustering method has been proposed as well as an algorithm for generating synthetic mixed data.Regarding the high-frequency study itself, convolutional neural networks have been introduced to process flow cytometry outputs and to study six functional groups of phytoplankton in the littoral zone and the open ocean. Differentiated and reproducible responses of these groups were identified following wind-induced pulse events, highlighting the importance of the coupling between physics and biology. In this regard, a change-point detection method has been proposed to delineate epipelagic and mesopelagic zones, providing a new basis for the calculation of mesopelagic carbon budgets

Full textVesicles are drops of radius of a few tens micrometers, bounded by an impermeable lipidmembrane of approximately 4 nm thickness, and embedded in an external viscous fluid. Thevesicle membrane is an original system from the mechanical point of view : it presents bothincompressible fluid properties (the lipids can flow freely along the membrane, but membraneis incompressible locally) and solid properties (the membrane resists to bending). The specificproperties of the membrane make the system very deformable and very constrained at the sametime.This manuscript deals with the modelisation of a vesicle subjected to external stresses of hydrodynamical origin, in the Stokes regime. A particular attention is paid to the situation of asettling vesicle. This situation is studied analytically in the small deformation regime. It is foundthat several families of non-trivial stationnary shapes exist, owing to the specific properties ofthe membrane. The study of a settling vesicle is pursued by the development of a numerical codeable to deal with large deformations. Original numerical methods are developped to deal with thecomputation of the bending and with the surface incompressibility constraint. This code permitsto study the formation of tether at the rear of a settling vesicle. These tethers are thin (typicalaspect ratio : length/radius ∼ 100) cylinders of membrane connected to the original vesicle. Itis shown that these tethered shapes are stationary shapes. A theoretical model is proposed andcompared to numerical simulations. This model shows the particular importance of tension inthese shapes. A mechanical modelling based on a curved Cosserat surface is also presented, andpermits to identify the bending contribution to the stress tensor. This contribution is a salientingredient to understand tethered shapes

Full textThe influence of low pressure filaments on the fluctuations of the global power injected in a Von Kármán turbulent flow is studied. The experimental strategy consists in operating the servomotors that drive the counter-rotating stirrers either at constant angular velocity or with a constant torque. In the first case, the regulating system responds to the turbulent drag forces by correcting the torque delivered. In the second case, there is a natural control of the flow on the forcing devices. The influence of the forcing modes on the fluctuations of the power injected is outlined by this method whereas the analysis of local quantities (velocity and pressure) show no differences in the small scale properties of the turbulent flows hence produced. Extracting the phase average of the injected power conditioned by the presence of a filament leads to the scenario of the corresponding energy transfer process. A model explaining the differences between the two injection modes is suggested

Full textThe Mediterranean Sea is characterized by rapid circulation of its water masses, low nutrient concentrations with a strong oligotrophy gradient, and a more rapid acidification than the global ocean. The Levantine Intermediate Waters (LIW) that connect the two basins are marked by a minimum of oxygen (O2). Variability in O2 content, nutrients, and inorganic carbon remain poorly understood given their low density of observation. The development and validation of a neural method CANYON-MED, specifically designed for the Mediterranean Sea, allowed to derive nutrients (nitrates, phosphates, silicates) and carbonate system variables (total alkalinity, total carbon and pH) from systematically measured variables (pressure, temperature, salinity and oxygen, position in time and space). The dynamics of the O2 minimum in the LIW in the face of variability in intermediate water ventilation processes in the northwestern Mediterranean was studied over the period 2012-2020. The application of CANYON-MED allowed the description of nutrients and carbonate trends in this area, in response to the intermittent deep convection phenomenon. The importance of convection on the ventilation of water masses, as well as on nutrient and acidification trends are thus highlighted, in a context of increased stratification by climate change. Finally, the ventilation of the LIW has been explored in its formation area (Levantine basin) using Argo floats over the period 2018-2019, nuancing the injection of O2 in the mixing patch

Full textThe appearance of spatial structures is a universal phenomenon. In nonlinear optics, generating transverse structures and controlling their dynamics is important not only from a fundamental point of view but also for potential applications. This work is carried out in this logic of characterizing and manipulating optical spatial structures, generated in a liquid crystal light valve experiment. The first part of the thesis is dedicated to the effects of spatial forcing on front propagation, which is done by using a spatial light modulator. A one-dimensional study, including the comparison with analytical models and numerical results, shows the existence of a pinning range inside which localized states of different size can be generated. A two-dimensional extension is also presented for different geometries of the spatial forcing. The second part deals with the effects of a nonlocal feedback on localized structures appearing in the simultaneous presence of diffraction and polarization interference. In the case of a translation effect, an advection phenomenon of structures is observed, associated with the appearance of phase singularities in their wake. Above a certain translation rate, another regime is attained, with periodicity along the direction of the drift. In the case where both translation and rotation are present, the self-organization modes of localized structures show analogies with certain modes occurring in the growing process of plants. The influence of the different parameters, in particular rotation, is characterized on the resulting patterns

Full textThe Antarctic ice sheet surface mass balance (SMB, snow accumulation minus ablation) is sensitive to climate parameters and directly contributes to global mean sea level variations. Therefore, in the perspective of climate change, it is useful to develop tools that can simulate the physical processes involved in the Antarctic surface mass balance. The approach developed in this thesis consists in using a cascade of atmospheric models from large scale to local scale. Thus, a regional climate model (Modèle atmosphérique régional, hereinafter referred to as MAR), forced by European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF) reanalysis, provides a diagnostic physical-based rain- and snowfall disaggregation model with meteorological fields at the regional scale (typically 40-km resolution). In a first part, it is shown that the SMB calculated by MAR is in good agreement with observations in most regions. Nonetheless, runoff appears to be overestimated; the problem vanishes when introducing a dependency of albedo with solar zenithal distance. In a second part, it is shown that although the parameterizations invoked in the disaggregation model are fairly simple, the knowledge of small-scale topography (5-km resolution) is efficiently used to improve the spatial variability of precipitation - and therefore SMB - over coastal regions of Antarctica. Model validation is carried out with the help of snow height measurements provided by automatic weather stations. Over the coastal place of Law Dome, the net accumulation gradient is mostly due to orographic forcing of precipitation (rather than blowing snow). The disaggregation model dramatically underestimates precipitation over the Antarctic Plateau, where polar stratospheric clouds associated with radiative cooling could play a role in the formation of precipitation during the polar night

Full textA data assimilation system for ocean models, the SEEK (Singular Evolutive Extended Kalman) filter, is studied to control a Bay of Biscay configuration. This 1/15° configuration, nested in a 1/3° North Atlantic configuration, through the use of Open (sea) Boundaries Conditions, is developed using HYCOM (Hybrid Coordinate Ocean Model). This study focuses on the parametrization of the model error in the SEEK filter, and more generally in low rank Kalman filters, in order to control regional models. Classic parametrizations of these data assimilation systems, which have been developed initially for basin models, are not adapted to the regional dynamics complexity. Ensemble methods are used to get a realistic estimation of the model error due to bad determination of atmospheric and open boundary forcings. These forcings influence is supposed to be very important on regional dynamics. Model error statistics are characterized using the method of representers, which demonstrates the impact of the assimilation of various type of observations to control the oceanic state. The propagation of the error generated at open boundaries is weak. The use of the error due to atmospheric forcings to parameterize the SEEK filter for surface temperature assimilation experiments gives good results. Their comparison with those given by a more classical parametrization shows the benefits of this study on model error

Full textThe principal subject of this thesis is the gravitational two-body problem in the extreme-mass-ratio regime - that is, where one mass is significantly smaller than the other - in the full context of our contemporary theory of gravity, general relativity. We divide this work into two broad parts: the first provides an overview of the theory of general relativity along with the basic mathematical methods underlying it, focusing on its canonical formulation and perturbation techniques; the second is dedicated to a presentation of our novel work in these areas, focusing on the problems of entropy, motion and the self-force in general relativity. We begin in Part I, accordingly, by offering a historical introduction to general relativity as well as a discussion on current motivation from gravitational wave astronomy in Chapter 1. Then, in Chapter 2, we turn to a detailed technical exposition of this theory, focusing on its canonical (Hamiltonian) formulation. We end this part of the thesis with a rigorous development of perturbation methods in Chapter 3. For the convenience of the reader, we summarize some basic concepts in differential geometry needed for treating these topics in Appendix A. In Part II, we begin with a study of entropy theorems in classical Hamiltonian systems in Chapter 4, and in particular, the issue of the second law of thermodynamics in classical mechanics and general relativity, with a focus on the gravitational two-body problem. Then in Chapter 5, we develop a general approach based on conservation laws for calculating the correction to the motion of a sufficiently small object due to gravitational perturbations in general relativity. When the perturbations are attributed to the small object itself, this effect is known as the gravitational self-force. It is what drives the orbital evolution of extreme-mass-ratio inspirals: compact binary systems where one mass is much smaller than - thus effectively orbiting and eventually spiralling into - the other, expected to be among the main sources for the future space-based gravitational wave detector LISA. In Chapter 6, we present some work on the numerical computation of the scalar self-force - a helpful testbed for the gravitational case - for circular orbits in the frequency domain, using a method for tackling distributional sources in the field equations called the Particle-without-Particle method. We include also, in Appendix B, some work on the generalization of this method to general partial differential equations with distributional sources, including also applications to other areas of applied mathematics. We summarize our findings in this thesis and offer some closing reflections in Chapter 7.
