Abstract:The intensity of vertical heat and mass transfer remains among the challenging topics in the study of ice-covered lakes. Presumably, internal waves (IWs) make a significant contribution to the heat transfer in the water column. However, the mechanisms of mixing enhancement by generation, interaction, and breaking of IWs of different scales, especially short-wavelength ones, have not been sufficiently studied. Furthermore, the experimental data required for estimating the key parameters of IWs (wavelengths, pro… Show more
