Abstract:<p><strong>Abstract.</strong> Over the years, the problem of dissipation rate of turbulent kinetic energy (TKE) in stable stratification remained unclear because of the practical impossibility to directly measure the process of dissipation that takes place at the smallest scales of turbulent motions. Poor representation of dissipation causes intolerable uncertainties in turbulence-closure theory and, thus, in modelling stably stratified turbulent flows. We obtain theor… Show more
