Lagrangian analysis is a powerful way to analyse the output of ocean circulation models and
other ocean velocity data such as from altimetry. In the Lagrangian approach, large sets of …

Chaotic dynamics can be considered as a physical phenomenon that bridges the regular
evolution of systems with the random one. These two alternative states of physical …

A review of classical percolation theory is presented, with an emphasis on novel
applications to statistical topography, turbulent diffusion, and heterogeneous media …

Geological media exhibit heterogeneities in their hydraulic and chemical properties, which
can lead to enhanced spreading and mixing of the transported species and induce an …

This work reviews the present position of and surveys future perspectives in the physics of
chaotic advection: the field that emerged three decades ago at the intersection of fluid …

Evaporation, pervaporation, and forward osmosis are processes leading to a mass transfer
of solvent across an interface: gas/liquid for evaporation and solid/liquid (membrane) for …

In this chapter, we discuss the links between oceanic submesoscale (100 m–10 km)
processes and mixing. Submesoscale currents occur on lateral scales of 100 m–10 km in …

We present the design and operation of a flow apparatus for investigations of mixing in time-
periodic and spatially periodic chaotic flows. Uses are illustrated in terms of two devices …
