Scale Interactions in the Ocean Circulation: Two Observational Process Studies

The University of New South Wales and the ARC Centre of Excellence for Climate System ScienceOrganizer Department of Earth and Planetary SciencesContact Abstract Show full text abstract about In this talk I will introduce my research on scale interacti...» In this talk I will introduce my research on scale interactions in oceanic processes and the implications of these interactions on the large-scale circulation.
I will discuss the nature and importance of scale interactions in the physics of the ocean and the ocean's role in the climate system, and why our understanding of these interactions is critical to our ability to model the ocean in climate models, interpret our observations and simulations of the oceanic circulation, and design effective observing systems.
I will then describe two examples from my current research that aim to further our
understanding of specific ocean processes in which scale interactions are key: 1. a study of eddy-mean flow interactions in oceanic western boundary current systems such as the Gulf Stream and Kuroshio Extensions, and 2. work on wave-mean flow-turbulence interactions in a Southern Ocean mixing hotspot. Each considers different interacting scales and examines different processes which in turn have different impacts on the larger-scale circulation. They share however a common aim, to understand the physical mechanisms underpinning the observed system behaviour, as well as a common approach, uniting process-targeted observations and idealised process modelling.

Noncovalent synthesis in aqueous medium: diversity and pathway-dependent self-assembly.
More information Time 10:00 - 10:00Title Organic Chemistry - Students seminarLocation Helen and Milton A. Kimmelman BuildingLecturer Yaron Tidhar

Yet, strong noncovalent interactions may result in nonequilibrium self-assembly, where structural diversity is achieved by forming several kinetic products based on a single covalent building block. I demonstrate that well-defined amphiphilic molecular systems based on perylene diimide/peptide conjugates exhibit kinetically controlled self-assembly in aqueous medium, enabling pathway-dependent assembly sequences, in which different organic nanostructures are evolved in a stepwise manner. In order to better understand the processes leading to the ordered self-assembly of aromatic amphiphiles in water, a kinetic mechanistic study was performed. In this study, aqueous self-assembly of chiral perylene diimide (PDI) amphiphile into highly ordered crystalline arrays was investigated using UV-vis and circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy coupled with cryogenic transmission electron microscopy (cryo-TEM). The latter provides direct structural imaging of self-assembly progress. Molecular dynamics calculations were performed as well. We observed a three-step mechanism: 1) nucleation; 2) growth; 3) coarsening. The nucleation-growth process fits a modified Kolmogorov /Johnson/Mehl/Avrami (KJMA) model. We observed that the initial state of the system is an amorphous aggregate that gradually transforms into a highly ordered system. Activation parameters suggest that de-solvation plays a significant role in the process.
Photophysical measurements of a set of materials similar to the ones studied in the kinetic part revealed excellent exciton mobility in ordered PDI arrays. The relation between structure and function was demonstrated using a set of kinetically formed structures that allow tuning of the exciton mobility via morphology of the self-assembled structures.
