Abstract:An extensive field survey was conducted to study the near-field and far-field mixing patterns of the Ras Laffan Industrial City surface outfall in Qatar. A coupled field remote-sensing method was proposed to study the mixing process of thermal plumes. The thermal infrared satellite photos were calibrated versus the measured temperature data with CTD. The effect of tidal currents and waves on the plume dynamics was investigated. The entrainment coefficient as a result of jet mixing and buoyant spreading was als… Show more
