Description:
A method is described for photographically recording the two-dimensional distribution of sugar concentration in a tank, which typically yields a resolution of 0.01 in weight fraction sugar. The tank image is coloured according to the sugar concentration, giving a quantitative visual record of sugar contours. The technique is demonstrated in photographs of a laboratory model of an oceanic front, in which interleaving quasi-horizontal layers are formed by double-diffusive effects. © 1981, Cambridge University Press.
