Environmental Stratified Flows

Stratified flows, common in environmental and geophysical applications, are char­ acterized by the variation of fluid density in the vertical direction that can result in qualitative and quantitative modifications of the flow patterns by buoyancy . Unstable stratification (dense water/air above ligh...
