Abstract:
This project deals with the formation of large scale coherent structures in anisotropic turbulent flows. The main objective is to understand better the physical mechanisms at play in geophysical and astrophysical flows. The project will combine theoretical, numerical and experimental approaches to characterize non-local interactions between small-scale turbulence and large scale vortices frequently found in such flows.
