Laboratory Benchmarks for the Development of Numerical Ocean Models

Abstract

The long-term goal of this project is to assess the feasibility of using laboratory models of turbulent coastal flows to develop improved parameterizations for oceanic boundary turbulence, thus contributing to the improvement of predictive coastal ocean models.
