Interaction of near-inertial waves with an anticyclonic vortex
Hossein A. Kafiabad, Jacques Vanneste, William R. Young
Anticyclonic vortices focus and trap near-inertial waves so that near-inertial energy levels are elevated within the vortex core. Some aspects of this process, including the nonlin…
Inertia-gravity-wave scattering by geostrophic turbulence
Miles A. C. Savva, Hossein A. Kafiabad, Jacques Vanneste
In rotating stratified flows including in the atmosphere and ocean, inertia-gravity waves (IGWs) often coexist with a geostrophically balanced turbulent flow. Advection and refract…
Wave-averaged balance: a simple example
Hossein A. Kafiabad, Jacques Vanneste, William R. Young
In the presence of inertia-gravity waves, the geostrophic and hydrostatic balance that characterises the slow dynamics of rapidly rotating, strongly stratified flows holds in a tim…
Diffusion of inertia-gravity waves by geostrophic turbulence
Hossein Kafiabad, Miles A. C. Savva, Jacques Vanneste
The scattering of inertia-gravity waves by large-scale geostrophic turbulence in a rapidly rotating, strongly stratified fluid leads to the diffusion of wave energy on the constant…
