Buoyancy‐Tilted Shear Layers and Coherent Structures in Hyperpycnal River Plume Plunging

Abstract Shear layers and corresponding Kelvin Helmholtz‐type Coherent Structures (KHCS) can be generated by rivers discharging into laterally‐unconfined quiescent open water bodies (e.g., lakes). When the river discharge has a greater density than the receiving water due to temperature and/or suspe...
