Wind-wave growth over a viscous liquid
J. Zhang, A. Hector, M. Rabaud +1
Experimental and theoretical studies on wind-wave generation have focused primarily on the air-water interface, where viscous effects are small. Here we characterize the influence…
Direct measurement of the aerotactic response in a bacterial suspension
J. Bouvard, C. Douarche, P. Mergaert +2
Aerotaxis is the ability of motile cells to navigate toward oxygen. A key question is the dependence of the aerotactic velocity with the local oxygen concentration c. Here we combi…
Effect of a weak current on wind-generated waves in the wrinkle regime
C. Nove-Josserand, S. Perrard, A. Lozano-Duran +3
We investigate numerically the influence of a weak current on wind-generated surface deformations for wind velocity below the onset of regular waves. In that regime, the liquid sur…
Motility and Phototaxis of , the Simplest Differentiated Colonial Alga
Hélène de Maleprade, Frédéric Moisy, Takuji Ishikawa +1
Green algae of the lineage, spanning from unicellular to vastly larger , are models for the study of the evolution of multicellularity, flagella…
Wind-sustained viscous solitons
M. Aulnette, M. Rabaud, F. Moisy
When wind blows at the surface of a liquid of sufficiently high viscosity, a wave packet of small amplitude is first generated, which sporadically forms large-amplitude fluid bumps…
Turbulent windprint on a liquid surface
Stéphane Perrard, Adrián Lozano-Durán, Marc Rabaud +2
We investigate the effect of a light turbulent wind on a liquid surface, below the onset of wave generation. In that regime, the liquid surface is populated by small disorganised d…
