SUMMARY:Instability of a two-layer density front in a rotating stratified 
 fluid - Jan-Bert Flor\, LEGI-CNRS Grenoble
DTSTART:20140606T150000Z
DTEND:20140606T160000Z
UID:TALK52232@talks.cam.ac.uk
CONTACT:Dr C. P.  Caulfield
DESCRIPTION:In this talk we  discuss results obtained for a baroclinic  fr
 ont investigated in laboratory experiments and with DNS. A rotating tank i
 s stably stratified with two layers of different density and shear is driv
 en by a cyclonic rotating lid at the surface.  We discuss new aspects of t
 he frontal dynamics such as the existence (or not) of interfacial Ekman la
 yers\, Holmboe and KH instability\, Rossby Kelvin instability and the appl
 ication of the results to geophysical flows.
