An analytical theory is developed which illustrates the dynamics of the spontaneous generation of thermohaline intrusions in the stratified ocean with density compensated …
Double diffusive convection is a naturally occurring phenomenon playing important roles in geophysical, astrophysical, and oceanographic events alike. Herein, it is the transfer of heat …
This study examines mixing characteristics of double-diffusive convection for a wide range of fluids. Our approach involves Direct Numerical Simulation (DNS) utilizing dealiased pseudo …
Melvin Stern was a brilliant theoretician who introduced a number of innovative ideas in oceanography. These include his (a) penetrating introduction of double diffusive …
