In this study, the evolution of the velocity ยฎeld and scalar concentration ยฎelds in stably stratiยฎed shear ยฏow is studied using direct numerical simulations. Two cases with vertical mean shear and horizontal mean shear are compared. In both cases, the growth of the turbulent kinetic energy weakens a
Linear and nonlinear structuring effects caused by Coriolis force and/or buoyancy force/density stable stratification are surveyed and discussed in this article. Its main part, which reports on theoretical, experimental and numerical results, illustrates what can be explained from classic approaches
