Location: Collaboratory (Young Hall 4222)

Presented By:
Prof. Colm-Cille P. Caulfield - University of Cambridge (Currently visiting Stanford)

Abstract:


Statically stable density stratification is ubiquitous in geophysical flows. It tends to suppress vertical motions\, leading to thin\, sheared layers and highly anisotropic structures. This talk discusses recent progress in understanding stratified turbulence\, including mixing efficiency and the role of intermittent events\, and highlights open questions relevant to oceans and atmospheres.
