Numerical modelling of the riverine thermal bar by Paul R. Holland

“…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 temperature of maximum density (Tmd). …”

Boundary-layer analysis of the thermal bar by Anthony Kay, H.K. Kuiken, J.H. Merkin

“…The applicability of the results to naturally occurring thermal bars (e. g. in lakes) is limited, but the laminar-flow analysis is likely to relate more closely to the phenomenon on a laboratory scale.…”

Stabilization of fluvial bed sediments by invasive quagga mussels (<i>Dreissena bugensis</i>) by Harry Sanders, Richard J Mason, Daniel N Mills, Stephen Rice

“…From field surveys, mean quagga mussel density was 122 m−2, attaching to an average of 591 g m−2 of mineral bed sediments. Across the survey reach, mussels attached to all grain sizes available, with attachment driven by grain availability, rather than active selection of particular grain sizes. …”

Thermobaric flow by Anthony Kay

“…An inviscid flow exhibits a three-layer behaviour, resulting in the formation of a mid-depth temperature maximum, such as is observed in some high-latitude oceans and deep lakes. This may be subsequently overtaken by nonlinear frontogenesis, which in the viscous case is shown to generate a thermal bar. …”
