Abstract
[ABSTRACT IN ENGLISH] If there is a 2-3 deg C difference between temperature of plume head and peripheral current, the heat plume cannot rise through this zone. If the Richardson coefficient, which expresses the ratio of inertia forces to buoyancy is made, the index penetration behavior of the stable stratified heat zone in the upper area can be predicted.
