Turbulence and Diffusion in Stable Environments: Based on the Proceedings of a Conference on Models of Turbulence and Diffusion in Stably Stratified: ... CONFERENCE SERIES NEW SERIES, Band 4) - Hardcover

Inhaltsangabe

Fluids in the atmosphere, the oceans and the rivers, whether in gaseous or liquid form, are in turbulent motion and yet stably stratified, so that dense fluid lies below lighter fluid. This collection provides a detailed, comprehensive survey of current theory and practice in this important branch of environmental fluid mechanics. The various contributors describe recent research on the common features of turbulent motions, and address the effects of stratification on the dispersion of pollutants into stable flows. This volume is designed to provide the theoretical, computational, and experimental background needed to improve quantitative models of turbulence and diffusion.
