In this work we study different techniques to estimate basic properties of turbulence, that is its characteristic velocity and length scale from low-resolution data.

Measurements of wind turbulence parameters by a conically scanning coherent Doppler lidar in the atmospheric boundary layer [PDF]
The method and results of lidar studies of spatiotemporal variability of wind turbulence in the atmospheric boundary layer are reported. The measurements were conducted by a Stream Line pulsed coherent Doppler lidar (PCDL) with the use of conical ...

Secondary Flow in Smooth and Rough Turbulent Circular Pipes: Turbulence Kinetic Energy Budgets
Direct Numerical Simulations have been performed for turbulent flow in circular pipes with smooth and corrugated walls. The numerical method, based on second-order finite discretization together with the immersed boundary technique, was validated and ...

Anisotropy of Solar Wind Turbulence in the Inner Heliosphere at Kinetic Scales: PSP Observations [PDF]
The anisotropy of solar wind turbulence is a critical issue in understanding the physics of energy transfer between scales and energy conversion between fields and particles in the heliosphere.

Anisotropic Energy Transfer and Conversion in Magnetized Compressible Turbulence
We present a spatial filtering (or coarse-graining) analysis on 3D magnetized magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) turbulence simulations. The filtered compressible MHD formulae show transfer of kinetic and magnetic energies from large to small scales, as well as ...

Data-driven decomposition of the streamwise turbulence kinetic energy in boundary layers. Part 2. Integrated energy and $A_{1}$ [PDF]
Scalings of the streamwise velocity energy spectra in turbulent boundary layers were considered in Part 1 (Baars & Marusic, J. Fluid Mech., vol. 882, 2020, A25). A spectral decomposition analysis provided a means to separate out attached and non-attached

The energy- and flux budget theory for surface layers in atmospheric convective and stably stratified turbulence [PDF]
The energy- and flux budget (EFB) turbulence closure theory for the atmospheric surface layers in convective and stably stratified turbulence has been developed using budget equations for turbulent energies and fluxes in the Boussinesq approximation. In the lower part of the surface layer in the atmospheric convective boundary layer (CBL), the rate of ...

Kinetic Turbulence in Collisionless High-β Plasmas
We present results from three-dimensional hybrid-kinetic simulations of Alfvénic turbulence in a high-β, collisionless plasma. The key feature of such turbulence is the interplay between local wave-wave interactions between the fluctuations in the ...
