[Soft-matter] Soft Matter and Stat Phys Seminar on 29 Apr 2022

[Maciej Lisicki]

Dear Soft Matter Colleagues and Friends,

On Friday 29 April 2022 at 9:30 AM at the UW Faculty of Physics (Pasteura 5, Warsaw; room 1.40) we are hosting a seminar during which

Marta Wacławczyk (IGF UW)

will give a talk

Detecting non-equilibrium states in atmosheric turbulence

Abstract
Atmospheric turbulence is a complex phenomenon, characterized by the presence of a plethora of scales (eddies) ranging from small viscosity-dominated to large energy-containing structures. Turbulence may undergo large space and time variations due to rapidly changing external conditions, it may be locally suppressed or enhanced. In this presentation we address non-equlibrium states where, because of non-stationarity, turbulence deviates from the classical Kolmogorov's picture. Such states can be described by different, non-classical scaling relations, which, however, appear to be universal. Based on these theoretical analyses we show that it is possible to retrieve information on temporal tendencies in a given flow. We focus on the stratocumulus-topped boundary layers and investigate data available from field measurements performed by research aircrafts.

We warmly welcome everyone to attend the talk and the Soft Matter Coffee Break after the seminar, held in room 4.51 (4th floor).
