- Vertical temperature profiles are analysed for the case of cooling of brackish sea water around the temperature of maximum density. Field measurements in the Bay of Bothnia cover a period of 52 days, during which the surface water was cooled from 6°C to 1.5°C. A mathematical model, which is based on the conservation equations for momentum, heat and salt in their one-dimensional forms, is presented. The equation of state is linear with respect to salinity and quadratic with respect to temperature. Turbulent exchange coefficients are calculated with a two-equation model of turbulence.The measured temperature profiles clearly demonstrate the importance of both temperature and salinity gradients in the mixed-layer dynamics. The mathematical model describes these and the general development of the temperature profile in a most satisfactory way.

- one-dimensional numerical model incorporating the - turbulence model is used to study the flow in an ice-covered lake dominated by through-flow. The effects of the rotation of the earth and vertical heat flux on the dimensionless velocity and eddy viscosity profiles are shown and characteristic length scales are presented.

- A one-dimensional mathematical model is employed for analyzing a laboratory experiment of basic significance in geophysical flows. The mathematical model is based on the conservation laws for momentum and salinity. A two-equation turbulence model is used for the determination of exchange coefficients. A sensitivity study indicates that the turbulent Prandtl number for salinity should receive special attention. Also the buoyancy term in the equation determining the turbulent lengthscale is found to exercise a large influence. Suggestions for these terms are presented
