Impact of Improved Mellor–Yamada Turbulence Model on Tropical Cyclone-Induced Vertical Mixing in the Oceanic Boundary Layer

It has been identified that there are several limitations in the Mellor–Yamada (MY) turbulence model applied to the atmospheric mixed layer, and Nakanishi and Niino proposed an improved MY model using a database for large-eddy simulations. The improved MY model (Mellor–Yamada–Nakanishi–Niino model;...
