Turbulence and Turbulent Mixing in Environmental Stratified Flows

Course information provided by the 2021-2022 Catalog.

Fundamentals of stably stratified flows, stratified homogeneous turbulence (spectra, lengthscales, and timescales), kinematics of diapycnal mixing, basic turbulent flow processes in homogeneous and stratified fluids (shear layers, wakes, boundary layers, etc.), energy budget analysis, and parameterizations of geophysical turbulence. Additional topics may include fossil turbulence theory and vortex-internal wave decomposition in strongly stratified turbulence.


Prerequisites/Corequisites Prerequisite: CEE 6550 or second course in fluid mechanics or permission of instructor.

When Offered Fall.
