Target entity: Langmuir circulation Context triple: [Irving Langmuir, hasEponym, Langmuir circulation]
-
A.
Langmuir circulation
chosen
Langmuir circulation is a wind-driven pattern of shallow, counter-rotating vortices in the upper ocean that organizes floating material into parallel streaks on the water surface.
-
B.
Ekman layer
The Ekman layer is the thin region of fluid near a boundary (such as the ocean surface or seafloor) where the balance between friction and the Coriolis effect causes the flow to spiral with depth.
-
C.
Ekman transport
Ekman transport is an oceanographic process in which wind-driven surface waters move at an angle to the wind direction due to the Coriolis effect, causing net water transport perpendicular to the wind.
-
D.
Kármán vortex street
Kármán vortex street is a repeating pattern of swirling vortices formed when a fluid flows past a bluff body, fundamental in fluid dynamics and aerodynamics.
-
E.
Kelvin–Helmholtz instability
Kelvin–Helmholtz instability is a fluid dynamical phenomenon in which velocity shear between layers of fluid (or plasma) with different densities leads to characteristic wave-like billows and turbulent mixing at their interface.
- F. None of above.
- G. Unsure - the case is ambiguous/there is not enough information to decide.
