Extended Data Fig. 6

a, Bathymetry (contour depth in cm) of the confluence model (dashed lines show positions of representative cross-sections). b, Visualization with a solution of uranine dye (Mr = 2.2). c, Time-averaged velocity patterns at the mid-depth plane (Mr = 50, color contours are velocity magnitudes). d-f, Patterns of lateral turbulent fluxes of momentum \(- \overline {u\prime v\prime }\) at the mid-depth plane (d, Mr = 50; e, Mr = 5.9; and f, Mr = 2.2).
