Geophysical Fluid Dynamics
Session ID#: 160282
Session Description:
The purpose of this session is to gather scientists interested in all aspects of the fluid mechanics of the Earth and planets (including oceans, atmospheres and interiors) and to favor exchanges between fluid dynamics and geophysics communities. Thanks to the evolution of high-performance computing, the progress in the acquisition of data in laboratory experiments, and the high resolutions achieved by modern in-situ and remote sensing instruments, research on fundamental fluid mechanics has become indispensable to gain knowledge on Earth and solar system environments. Main topics of this session will be instabilities, energy cascades, mixing as well all the mechanisms underlying the dynamics of geophysical and heliospheric flows, such as waves, turbulence, phase transitions and the coupling with magnetic fields. Studies of rotating, stratified, helical, convecting and/or conductive fluids and plasmas are welcome. Contributions based on state of the art observations, numerical simulations, machine learning techniques, theoretical models and laboratory experiments will be all well received.
