The course will cover the following topics:
1. Characteristic features of turbulence, instabilities leading to turbulence development, non-dimensional parameters: Re, Ri, Pr, Pe, Ra,
2. Reynolds decomposition, Reynolds averaging
3. Governing Reynolds-averaged equations, problem of turbulence closure
4. Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) turbulence modelling
5. Large Eddy Simulation method
6. Kolmogorov's hypotheses, transport equations in the spectral space
7. Two-dimensional turbulence
8. Phenomenology of the Atmospheric Boundary Layer (ABL), diurinal cycle
9. Monin-Obukhov theory
10. Growth of ABL, Ekman spiral,
11. Cloud-topped boundary layers
12. Motion of droplets in turbulent flow
13. Preferential concentration of cloud droplets', droplets' growth due to condenstation, droplets' growth due to collision-coalescence

Learning outcomes
After completing the course the student will be able to understand hypotheses used in turbulence study, understand basic modelling approaches and draw conclusions from analysis of experimental data.
Assessment criteria
The final oral exam will be given during the final exam period. Apart from this several homework assignments are planned.
