Atmospheric and oceanic flows are often modeled as two-dimensional due to their large planar extents (∼ 1000 km) and small vertical extent (∼ 10 km). Most phenomena in these systems are governed by the theory of two-dimensional ...

Wall-bounded turbulent flows that possess finite curvature of the mean flow streamlines are known to be starkly different from their plane counterparts. One of the primary distinguishing features of such flows is the ...
