Turbulence in geophysical fluid dynamics.
This course discusses basic concepts of turbulent flows relevant to geophysics and astrophysics. Starting from the celebrated theory of Kolmogorov valid for homogeneous and isotropic turbulence, we will consider gradually more realistic models: 2D turbulence, beta-plane turbulence, thin-layer turbulence and finally rotating and stratified turbulence.
- This minicourse is part of the summer school program: 100 years of cascades, organized in the framework of the thematic semester in turbulence.
- For the lectures held in Valrose, attendance is open to anyone interested.
