Bubbles & Turbulence in the Ocean Surface Layer & Topographic Interactions in Coastal Waters
Abstract
We have two long term goals relating to this project: (i) To determine processes responsible for vertical transfer of heat, mass and momentum across the near surface of the ocean, including the role of bubbles in mediating and serving as tracers of such processes; (ii) To elucidate the fluid dynamical processes associated with stratified flow over topography and its oceanographic implications for circulation in continental shelf and coastal waters.
