Earth Surface Processes
Turbulence refers to the chaotic, irregular flow of fluid that results from disturbances in velocity or pressure within that fluid. This phenomenon plays a significant role in understanding how materials, like sediment and sand, are transported in various environments, impacting the dynamics of rivers and deserts. In both river systems and dune landscapes, turbulence influences sediment transport processes and can lead to changes in landform development over time.
congrats on reading the definition of turbulence. now let's actually learn it.
