Abstract:The laboratory experiments for identification of mechanisms of the spume droplet's formation in marine atmospheric boundary layer, when strong wind tears off water from the crest of the waves, were carried out at the High-speed wind-wave flume of IAP RAS. The main mechanism responsible for the generation of spume droplets is bag breakup fragmentation of small-scale disturbances that arise at the air-water interface under the strong wind. This work concentrates on investigation of a separate bag-breakup event t… Show more
