Presidential Young Investigators Award: Mixing Processes in Surface-Water Flows

这笔赠款是为了支持一名总统青年调查员。他的研究将涉及两个主要领域。一是对存在热力层结的河流、湖泊和河口的湍流动力学进行实验研究。另一个是与海洋生物学家在河口和湖泊生态方面开展合作项目。这项研究将提高人们对环境扩散以及水动力过程与浮游植物生物量关系的认识和建模能力。

This grant is for the support of a Presidential Young Investigator. His research will involve two primary areas. One is experimental research on the dynamics of turbulent flows in rivers, lakes, and estuaries in the presence of thermal stratification. The other will be the development of collaborative projects with marine biologists on estuarine and lake ecology. The research will advance knowledge and modeling capability in environmental dispersion, and the relation of hydrodynamic processes and phytoplankton biomass.
