Decaying turbulence in neutral and stratified fluids has been studied experimentally for relatively high mesh Reynolds numbers and long time-histories. The neutral case indicates an initial period decay law, q2∝ t−1, through non-dimensional time \[ W_gt/M \simeq 800 \] which is considerably longer than previous measurements at the same mesh Reynolds number (Re = 48260). The stratified experiment resulted in a decay rate virtually identical to that of the neutral case through Wgt/M = 275. However the decay rate sharply decreased after this time when the field of turbulence was replaced by internal gravity waves. A critical Richardson number marks the transition from the turbulence to an internal gravity wave domain.
