Fluid Dynamics of Bacterial Turbulence [PDF]
Self-sustained turbulent structures have been observed in a wide range of living fluids, yet no quantitative theory exists to explain their properties. We report experiments on active turbulence in highly concentrated 3D suspensions of Bacillus subtilis and compare them with a minimal fourth-order vector-field theory for incompressible bacterial ...

Flows in inkjet-printed aqueous rivulets [PDF]
We used optical microscopy to investigate flows inside water rivulets that were inkjet-printed onto different surfaces and under different ambient conditions. The acquired fluid dynamics videos were submitted to the 2013 Gallery of Fluid Motion.

Long-term sea-level rise and multiyear to decadal sea level variations pose substantial risks for flooding and erosion in coastal communities. Here we use observations and climate model predictions to show that sea level variations along the U.S.

Stronger decadal variability of the Kuroshio Extension under simulated future climate change
Understanding the behavior of western boundary current systems is crucial for predictions of biogeochemical cycles, fisheries, and basin-scale climate modes over the midlatitude oceans.

Conformal fluid dynamics [PDF]
We present a conformal theory of a dissipationless relativistic fluid in 2 space-time dimensions. The theory carries with it a representation of the algebra of 2-$D$ area-preserving diffeomorphisms in the target space of the complex scalar potentials. A complete canonical description is given, and the central charge of the current algebra is calculated.

The Fluid Dynamics of Disease Transmission
For an infectious disease such as the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) to spread, contact needs to be established between an infected host and a susceptible one.

Experimental Oxygen Mass Transfer Study of Micro-Perforated Diffusers
We studied new micro-perforated diffuser concepts for the aeration process in wastewater treatment plants and evaluated their aeration efficiency. These are micro-perforated plate diffusers with orifice diameters of 30 µm, 50 µm and 70 µm and a micro ...

GFDL SHiELD: A Unified System for Weather‐to‐Seasonal Prediction
We present the System for High‐resolution prediction on Earth‐to‐Local Domains (SHiELD), an atmosphere model developed by the Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory (GFDL) coupling the nonhydrostatic FV3 Dynamical Core to a physics suite originally taken ...
