Fossil turbulence revisited
Carl H. Gibson
A theory of fossil turbulence presented in the 11th Liege Colloquium on Marine turbulence is "revisited" in the 29th Liege Colloquium "Marine Turbulence Revisited". The Gibson (198…
Intermittency of internal wave shear and turbulence dissipation
Carl H. Gibson
It is crucial to understand the extreme intermittency of ocean and lake turbulence and turbulent mixing in order to estimate vertical fluxes of momentum, heat and mass by Osborn-Co…
A fluid mechanical explanation of dark matter
Carl H. Gibson
Matter in the universe has become ``dark'' or ``missing'' through misconceptions about the fluid mechanics of gravitational structure formation. Gravitational condensation occurs o…
Dark matter at viscous-gravitational Schwarz scales: theory and observations
Carl H. Gibson
The Jeans criterion for the minimum self-gravitational condensation scale is extended to include the possibility of condensation on non-acoustic density nuclei at Schwarz scales, w…
Dark matter formation at Schwarz scales: primordial fog particles and WIMP superhalos
Carl H. Gibson
Dark matter appears in two forms as a consequence of the fluid mechanics of self-gravitational condensation. Condensation occurs primarily on non-acoustic nuclei rather than on the…
Kolmogorov Similarity Hypotheses for Scalar Fields: Sampling Intermittent Turbulent Mixing in the Ocean and Galaxy
Carl H. Gibson
Kolmogorov's three universal similarity hypotheses are extrapolated to describe scalar fields like temperature mixed by turbulence. By the analogous Kolmogorov third hypothesis for…
