A Generalized Richardson Number Diagnostic for Turbulence in the Free Atmosphere
Mohamed Foudad, Miguel A. C. Teixeira, Paul D. Williams +1
A new Richardson number formulation, Ri_new, is introduced to improve the diagnosis of turbulence in the stratified free atmosphere. The formulation is derived from the turbulent k…

Turbulence-induced anti-Stokes flow: experiments and theory
Simen à . Ellingsen, Olav Rømcke, Benjamin K. Smeltzer +4
We report experimental evidence of an Eulerian-mean flow, , created by the interaction of surface waves and tailored ambient sub-surface turbulence, which partly c…

Integral constraints on the linear instability of stratified flow with planar shear at an arbitrary angle to the vertical
Miguel A. C. Teixeira, Mohamed Foudad, Paul D. Williams
Integral constraints on the linear instability of stratified parallel flow with planar shear at an arbitrary angle to the vertical are derived using the analytical approach of Mile…
