Stably stratified canopy flow in complex terrain
Stably stratified canopy flow in complex terrain has been considered a difficult condition for measuring net ecosystem–atmosphere exchanges of carbon, water vapor, and energy. A long-standing advection error in eddy-flux measurements is caused by stably stratified canopy flow. Such a condition with strong thermal gradient and less turbulent air is also difficult for modeling. To understand the ...
متن کاملOn Ridges and Valleys
Ridges and valleys are earth’s relief structures. They can have an imaging counterpart provided we model a digital image as a landscape by considering grey level values as height. These two dual entities have received comparatively little attention from the computer vision community with regard to others like edges or corners. In this paper we first propose a taxonomy or classification of the s...
متن کاملA Numerical Study of Turbulent Stably-Stratified Plane Couette Flow
Direct numerical simulations (DNS) of stably-stratified, turbulent plane Couette flow are currently being performed on the XC-4000. The friction Reynolds number is kept approximately constant, Reτ 540 and the Richardson number Riw varies between 0 and 0.1. The flow is divided into two regions: the region close to the wall and the core region. The region close to the wall presents strong velocit...
متن کاملBuoyancy generated turbulence in stably stratified flow with shear
The energy evolution in buoyancy-generated turbulence subjected to shear depends on the gradient Richardson number Ri and the stratification number St, which is a ratio of the time scale of the initial buoyancy fluctuations to the time scale of the mean stratification. During an initial period, the flow state evolves as in the unsheared case. After this period, shear generates fluctuating veloc...
