Defining an appropriate range of scales for application of the gradient Richardson number, with implications for observations of stratified shear turbulence at laboratory and ocean scales
The Richardson number (Ri) represents the square of the ratio of buoyancy frequency to vertical shear, and a value less than ¼ has long been recognized as a necessary condition for the generation of turbulence, particularly at small scales. At larger scales, it is common to evaluate a bulk Richardso...
