COEFFICIENTS ALONG THE ROMANIAN WEST COAST OF THE BLACK SEA

Abstract
The space-scale dependence of the turbulent mixing coefficients as
determined from turbulent diffusion of dissolved substances, 
dispersion of finite particles and current velocity fluctuations
during 1976-1980 is presented, and the deviations from the 
"4/3 power law" in the shallow waters are pointed out.
