Turbulent geodynamo simulations: a leap towards Earth's core
We present an attempt to reach realistic turbulent regime in direct numerical simulations of
the geodynamo. We rely on a sequence of three convection-driven simulations in a rapidly …

Scaling regimes in spherical shell rotating convection
Rayleigh–Bénard convection in rotating spherical shells can be considered as a simplified
analogue of many astrophysical and geophysical fluid flows. Here, we use three …

Dynamo-based limit to the extent of a stable layer atop Earth's core
The existence of a stably stratified layer underneath the core–mantle boundary (CMB) has
been recently revived by corroborating evidences coming from seismic studies, mineral …

Relating force balances and flow length scales in geodynamo simulations
In fluid dynamics, the scaling behaviour of flow length scales is commonly used to infer the
governing force balance of a system. The key to a successful approach is to measure length …

Core eigenmodes and their impact on the Earth's rotation
Abstract Changes in the Earth's rotation are deeply connected to fluid dynamical processes
in the outer core. This connection can be explored by studying the associated Earth …

Cooling patterns in rotating thin spherical shells—Application to Titan's subsurface ocean
We use rotating convection simulations in a thin spherical shell to study fluid dynamics in
subsurface oceans of icy moons. We find two types of persistent results, characterized by …

Thermal convection and dynamo action with stable stratification at the top of the earth's outer core
The outer core of the Earth, filled with electrically conducting fluid, undergoes
thermochemical convection due to super-adiabatic temperature gradients. Near the core …
