Three-dimensional turbulence effects on plankton dynamics behind an obstacle
Alice Jaccod, Stefano Berti, Enrico Calzavarini +1
We study a predator-prey model of plankton dynamics in the two and three-dimensional wakes of turbulent flows behind a cylinder, focusing on the impact of the three-dimensional cha…
Effects of large-scale advection and small-scale turbulent diffusion on vertical phytoplankton dynamics
Vinicius Beltram Tergolina, Enrico Calzavarini, Gilmar Mompean +1
Turbulence has been recognized as a factor of paramount importance for the survival or extinction of sinking phytoplankton species. However, dealing with its multiscale nature in m…
Predator-prey plankton dynamics in turbulent wakes behind islands
Alice Jaccod, Stefano Berti, Enrico Calzavarini +1
Plankton constitutes the productive base of aquatic ecosystems and plays an essential role in the global carbon cycle. The impact of hydrodynamic conditions on the biological activ…
Statistical properties of two-dimensional elastic turbulence
Himani Garg, Enrico Calzavarini, Stefano Berti
We numerically investigate the spatial and temporal statistical properties of a dilute polymer solution in the elastic turbulence regime, i.e., in the chaotic flow state occurring…
Lagrangian pair dispersion in upper-ocean turbulence in the presence of mixed-layer instabilities
Stefano Berti, Guillaume Lapeyre
Turbulence in the upper ocean in the submesoscale range (scales smaller than the deformation radius) plays an important role for the heat exchange with the atmosphere and for ocean…
Elastic turbulence in two-dimensional cross-slot viscoelastic flows
Dário Oliveira Canossi, Gilmar Mompean, Stefano Berti
We report evidence of irregular unsteady flow of two-dimensional polymer solutions in the absence of inertia in cross-slot geometry using numerical simulations of Oldroyd-B model.…
