Anatomy of subcritical submarine flows with a lutocline and an intermediate destruction layer

This study investigates the underlying physical mechanisms of turbidity currents travelling thousands of miles in confined submarine settings, rather than diffusing after short distance. Using high resolution simulations with up to a billion grid points helps to understand the evolving layered struc...
