DOI: 10.1002/2017jc012985
Abstract: Estimates of the global ocean vertical velocities (Eulerian, eddy-induced and residual) from a dynamically consistent and data-constrained ocean state estimate are presented and analyzed. Conventional patterns of vertical velocity, Ekman pumping, appear in the upper… read more here.

DOI: 10.1029/2018gl080363
Abstract: A fundamental aspect of vertical velocities in the atmosphere is their asymmetric nature, with stronger upward than downward motions. Here we study this asymmetry from a synoptic‐scale perspective, by employing a storm‐tracking algorithm in observations… read more here.

DOI: 10.1029/2020gl090675
Abstract: Convective vertical velocity (wc) and convective mass flux (Mc) lie at the heart of global climate model cumulus parameterizations, but few observations of these critical parameters are available. This paper develops and evaluates a novel,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1080/19475705.2017.1366955
Abstract: ABSTRACT Vertical velocity distribution in some fluid–solid flows such as debris flows has not been well recognized and lacked a commonly accepted form. The particle image velocimetry (PIV) measurement system was employed to investigate the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1109/lgrs.2018.2873666
Abstract: To eliminate ghost effects, a compressed sensing (CS) pseudo-vertical velocity method is proposed. Based on pressure data acquired using a conventional acquisition configuration, the vertical component of particle velocity at the same receiver positions is… read more here.

DOI: 10.1175/jpo-d-19-0002.1
Abstract: Within the pycnocline, where diapycnal mixing is suppressed, both the vertical movement (uplift) of isopycnal surfaces and upward motion along sloping isopycnals supply nutrients to the euphotic layer, but the relative importance of each of… read more here.
