Geophysical stratified turbulence and mixing in the laboratory
Geophysical fluid flows that are stably-stratified in density, like most of the ocean, can be strongly turbulent at small scales as a result of shear instabilities. The resulting mixing controls the vertical transport of heat and tracers that are key to large-scale layering and circulation patterns,...
