Abstract: he stability analysis of stratified parallel shear flows is fundamental to investigations of the onset of turbulence in atmospheric and oceanic datasets. The stability analysis is performed by considering the behavior of ...

Abstract: maximum sustainable heat flux (MSHF) framework for the collapse of turbulence in the stable boundary layer has been previously studied using a one-dimensional model of Couette flow with parameterized turbulent fluxes. This ...

Abstract: long time series of temporally high-resolution wind and potential temperature data from the 213-m tower at Cabauw in the Netherlands demonstrates the existence of two distinct regimes of the stably stratified nocturnal ...
