Floquet stability of oscillating boundary layers on adiabatic slopes
Bryan Kaiser, Lawrence Pratt
The presence of a no-slip, impermeable, adiabatic, sloped boundary in an otherwise quiescent, stably stratified, Boussinesq flow generates baroclinic vorticity within a diffusive b…

Direct numerical simulation of low Reynolds number oscillating boundary layers on adiabatic slopes
Bryan Kaiser, Lawrence Pratt, Jörn Callies
We investigate the instabilities and transition mechanisms of Boussinesq stratified boundary layers on sloping boundaries when subjected to oscillatory body forcing parallel to the…
