Consider the anisotropic Navier-Stokes equations as well as the primitive equations. It is shown that the horizontal velocity of the solution to the anisotropic Navier-Stokes equations in a cylindrical domain of height $varepsilon $ with initial data $u_0=(v_0,w_0)in B^{2-2/p}_{q,p}$, $1/q+1/ple 1$ if $qge 2$ and $4/3q+2/3ple 1$ if $qle 2$, converges as $varepsilon to 0$ with convergence rate $mathcal{O} (varepsilon )$ to the horizontal velocity of the solution to the primitive equations with initial data $v_0$ with respect to the maximal-$L^p$-$L^q$-regularity norm. Since the difference of the corresponding vertical velocities remains bounded with respect to that norm, the convergence result yields a rigorous justification of the hydrostatic approximation in the primitive equations in this setting. It generalizes in particular a result by Li and Titi for the $L^2$-$L^2$-setting. The approach presented here does not rely on second order energy estimates but on maximal $L^p$-$L^q$-estimates for the heat equation.

In this paper, we provide rigorous justification of the hydrostatic approximation and the derivation of primitive equations as the small aspect ratio limit of the incompressible three-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations in the anisotropic horizontal viscosity regime. Setting $varepsilon >0$ to be the small aspect ratio of the vertical to the horizontal scales of the domain, we investigate the case when the horizontal and vertical viscosities in the incompressible three-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations are of orders $O(1)$ and $O(varepsilon^alpha)$, respectively, with $alpha>2$, for which the limiting system is the primitive equations with only horizontal viscosity as $varepsilon$ tends to zero. In particular we show that for well prepared initial data the solutions of the scaled incompressible three-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations converge strongly, in any finite interval of time, to the corresponding solutions of the anisotropic primitive equations with only horizontal viscosities, as $varepsilon$ tends to zero, and that the convergence rate is of order $Oleft(varepsilon^fracbeta2right)$, where $beta=min{alpha-2,2}$. Note that this result is different from the case $alpha=2$ studied in [Li, J.; Titi, E.S.: emph{The primitive equations as the small aspect ratio limit of the Navier-Stokes equations: Rigorous justification of the hydrostatic approximation}, J. Math. Pures Appl., textbf{124} rm(2019), 30--58], where the limiting system is the primitive equations with full viscosities and the convergence is globally in time and its rate of order $Oleft(varepsilonright)$.
The primitive equations of large-scale ocean dynamics form the fundamental model in geophysical flows. It is well-known that the primitive equations can be formally derived by hydrostatic balance. On the other hand, the mathematically rigorous derivation of the primitive equations without coupling with the temperature is also known. In this paper, we generalize the above result from the mathematical point of view. More precisely, we prove that the scaled Boussinesq equations strongly converge to the primitive equations with full viscosity and full diffusion as the aspect ration parameter goes to zero, and the rate of convergence is of the same order as the aspect ratio parameter. The convergence result mathematically implies the high accuracy of hydrostatic balance.
The primitive equations are fundamental models in geophysical fluid dynamics and derived from the scaled Navier-Stokes equations. In the primitive equations, the evolution equation to the vertical velocity is replaced by the so-called hydrostatic approximation. In this paper, we give a justification of the hydrostatic approximation by the scaled Navier-Stoke equations in anisotropic spaces $L^infty_H L^q_{x_3} (Torus^3)$ for $q geq 1$.
We prove a weak stability result for the three-dimensional homogeneous incompressible Navier-Stokes system. More precisely, we investigate the following problem : if a sequence $(u_{0, n})_{nin N}$ of initial data, bounded in some scaling invariant space, converges weakly to an initial data $u_0$ which generates a global regular solution, does $u_{0, n}$ generate a global regular solution ? A positive answer in general to this question would imply global regularity for any data, through the following examples $u_{0,n} = n vf_0(ncdot)$ or $u_{0,n} = vf_0(cdot-x_n)$ with $|x_n|to infty$. We therefore introduce a new concept of weak convergence (rescaled weak convergence) under which we are able to give a positive answer. The proof relies on profile decompositions in anisotropic spaces and their propagation by the Navier-Stokes equations.
In this article, we establish sufficient conditions for the regularity of solutions of Navier-Stokes equations based on one of the nine entries of the gradient tensor. We improve the recently results of C.S. Cao, E.S. Titi (Arch. Rational Mech.Anal. 202 (2011) 919-932) and Y. Zhou, M. Pokorn$acute{y}$ (Nonlinearity 23, 1097-1107 (2010)).
