Graph Chatbot

Chattez avec Graph Search

Posez n’importe quelle question sur les cours, conférences, exercices, recherches, actualités, etc. de l’EPFL ou essayez les exemples de questions ci-dessous.

AVERTISSEMENT : Le chatbot Graph n'est pas programmé pour fournir des réponses explicites ou catégoriques à vos questions. Il transforme plutôt vos questions en demandes API qui sont distribuées aux différents services informatiques officiellement administrés par l'EPFL. Son but est uniquement de collecter et de recommander des références pertinentes à des contenus que vous pouvez explorer pour vous aider à répondre à vos questions.

Persistence of bioconvection-induced mixed layers in a stratified lake

Alfred Johny Wüest, Damien Bouffard, Oscar Rodrigo Sepúlveda Steiner

In situ observations of biophysical interactions in natural waters typically focus on physical mechanisms influencing biological activity. Yet, biological activity can also drive physical processes in aquatic environments. A community of photoautotrophic, ...

Intercomparison of Large-Eddy Simulations of the Antarctic Boundary Layer for Very Stable Stratification

Etienne Gabriel Henri Vignon, Jing Huang

In polar regions, where the boundary layer is often stably stratified, atmospheric models produce large biases depending on the boundary-layer parametrizations and the parametrization of the exchange of energy at the surface. This model intercomparison foc ...

Thermohaline Flow in Seawater Intrusion in Shallow Coastal Aquifers

David Andrew Barry, Chenming Zhang

Temperature and salinity, with largely different diffusivities, make a perfect couple that drives thermohaline flow (double diffusive convection where heat and salt are the two main concerned properties) in porous media wherever their gradients co-exist. S ...

Kelvin waves in Lake Geneva

Ulrich Lemmin, Damien Bouffard

The passage of Kelvin waves in Lake Geneva after strong wind events was experimentally investigated in 1987 and 2002 using thermistor chains, current meters and Acoustic Doppler Current Profilers (ADCP) probing the whole water column, including the bottom ...

Diffusive-type of double diffusion in lakes - a review

Alfred Johny Wüest, Martin Schmid

This chapter is a contribution in honour of Gerhard H Jirka, who has been fascinated by the amazing variety of small-scale structures that nature surprises us with, particularly in stratified natural waters. Here, we focus on the diffusive regime of double ...

Lake Baikal deepwater renewal mystery solved

Alfred Johny Wüest, Martin Schmid

Deepwater renewal by intrusions and turbulent diffusion in Lake Baikal is very effective despite the enormous depth of up to 1642 m and the permanently stable stratification below similar to 300 m depth. Temperature time series recorded at the bottom of a ...

Amer Geophysical Union2008

The flux of sensible heat from the land surface is related to the average rate of dissipation of temperature fluctuations in the atmospheric surface layer through the temperature variance budget equation. In many cases it is desirable to estimate the heat ...
