Salt fingering in subsea permafrost: some stability and energy considerations / Joan P. Gosink, G.C. Baker.
Title: | Salt fingering in subsea permafrost: some stability and energy considerations / Joan P. Gosink, G.C. Baker. |
Author(s): | Gosink, Joan P. Baker, G. C. |
Date: | 1990. |
In: | Journal of Geophysical Research. (1990.), Vol. 95(C6) (1990) |
Abstract: | Critical density gradient criterion for salt fingering in porous media was determined through simple wedge-flow model. In this, two salt transport mechanisms, convection and diffusion, are decoupled, and time scale analysis of these processes is performed. Stable density gradient exists when time required to form wedge-like flow is greater than time required to diffuse salt water horizontally across layer. |
Notes: | Journal of Geophysical Research. Vol. 95(C6) :9575-9583 (1990). |
