The relation between the flux of temperature (or buoyancy), the vertical temperature gradient and the height above the bottom is investigated in an oceanographic context, using high-resolution temperature measurements. The model for the evolution of a stra ...
During the last decade, environmental flows have been measured with a growing set of instruments, which can now offer relatively high resolution in space and time. This growing amount of data can analysed following a "statistical approach to turbulence", r ...
Lake Geneva (Lac Léman) is the largest freshwater body in Western Europe. It is a deep peri-alpine lake whose importance stems from being not only an essential freshwater source in the region, but also a major tourist destination, a fishery and a waterway. ...
Dynamics in Lake Geneva are analysed in view of recent observational and numerical advances. The classical linear internal wave view of Lake Dynamics is complemented by the description of near-shore, vortex-like nonlinear motions. The development of these ...
The study of turbulence in geophysical flows benefits from the growing amount of data available via modern sensor technologies. It is now possible to obtain detailed statistical characterisation of turbulence from field observations. By ``statistical,'' we ...
The drift of temperature measurements by semiconductor negative temperature coefficient thermistors is a well-known problem. This study analyzes the drift characteristics of the thermistors designed and used at the Royal Netherlands Institute for Sea Resea ...
