THE OBSERVED VARIATION OF COHERENT UPDRAFT OBJECTS WITH HEIGHT IN THE CONVECTIVE BOUNDARY LAYER
Buoyant plumes and thermals rising through the convective boundary layer (CBL) modulate the flux of heat, moisture, momentum, and aerosols from the surface to aloft. These fluxes also determine the lower boundary conditions for cumulus development (e.g., shallow vs. deep cumuli) provided that …

Experiments on Stratified Multiphase Plumes
Buoyant plumes are flows of great interest to engineers and geologists alike with applications varying from chemical engineering processes to explosive volcanic eruption columns. Single-phase plumes have been well studied and the flow’s behaviour is generally well understood, however many examples …
