Abstracts are not currently available in GtR for all funded research. This is normally because the abstract was not required at the time of proposal submission, but may be because it included sensitive information such as personal details.

Title DATASET: Small-scale convective turbulence constrains microbial patchiness. 
Description Data storage for paper (currently in review) on turbulence-driven microbial patchiness. This dataset contains netCDF4 files with trajectory (position and orientation) data for virtual microbes in a series of turbulent fluid simulations. Each simulation pertains to a microbial population with a set swim-speed and gyrotactic reorientation parameter, except the simulation pertaining to the non-motile population, which has no swim-speed or reorientation parameter. 
Type Of Material Database/Collection of data 
Year Produced 2021 
Provided To Others? Yes  
Impact Evidence in support of hypothesis for micro-scale microbial patchiness driven by a coupling of motility and turbulent fluid shear.
