Numerical modelling of the riverine thermal bar

A Finite-Volume discretisation of the Navier-Stokes equations is used to study various aspects of the physics and ecology of the riverine thermal bar. The classical thermal bar is a down-welling plume which is formed twice a year in temperate lakes when the shallows warm or cool through the temperat...
