Inland discharges into reservoirs often carry rich nutrients, pollutants and biological species into the coastal regions, which are redistributed across the central regions of reservoirs through dynamical mixing processes. One of the important mixing processes is the horizontal exchange flow between the near shore and central regions induced by diurnal heating and cooling through the water surface, which is classified as a natural convection process. This process will be investigated in this project through a closely linked analytical, experimental and numerical research program. The output from this research will have direct application in water quality management and environmental planning.

内陆水库排放通常将丰富的营养物质、污染物和生物物种带入沿海地区，并通过动态混合过程在水库中心区域重新分配。重要的混合过程之一是昼夜加热和冷却通过水面引起的近岸和中心区域之间的水平交换流，这被归类为自然对流过程。该项目将通过紧密相连的分析、实验和数值研究计划来研究这一过程。这项研究的成果将直接应用于水质管理和环境规划。
