The turbulent structure of the Arctic summer boundary layer during the Arctic summer cloud‐ocean study
The mostly ice covered Arctic Ocean is dominated by low‐level liquid‐or mixed‐phase
clouds. Turbulence within stratocumulus is primarily driven by cloud top cooling that induces …

Dimensional transition in rotating turbulence
In this work we investigate, by means of direct numerical hyperviscous simulations, how
rotation affects the bidimensionalization of a turbulent flow. We study a thin layer of fluid …

Turbulence in stratified atmospheres: implications for the intracluster medium
The gas motions in the intracluster medium (ICM) are governed by turbulence. However,
since the ICM has a radial profile with the centre being denser than the outskirts, ICM …
