Surface gravity wave-mean flow interaction with comparable spatial scales. Part II: two-way coupling and wave-wave interactions
Basile Gallet
We consider narrow-band deep-water surface gravity waves propagating above a background flow whose spatial scale is comparable to the wavelength. We focus on the regime where the b…
Surface gravity wave-mean flow interaction with comparable spatial scales. Part I: reduced wave equations
Basile Gallet, Alexandre Tlili
We consider deep-water surface gravity waves propagating above a background flow whose spatial scale is comparable to the wavelength, focusing on the regime where the flow is slow…
Equilibrium statistical mechanics of waves in inhomogeneous moving media
Alexandre Tlili, Basile Gallet
We adapt the microcanonical framework of equilibrium statistical mechanics to predict the statistics of short waves in inhomogeneous moving media. For steady inhomogeneities and ba…
Quantitatively mapping the Eady model onto a two-layer quasi-geostrophic model
Julie Meunier, Basile Gallet
The two-layer quasigeostrophic model (2LQG) and the Eady model are two idealized systems illustrating the baroclinic instability of atmospheric jets and ocean currents. The two set…
Statistics of near-inertial waves over a background flow via quantum and statistical mechanics
Alexandre Tlili, Basile Gallet
We revisit the interaction of an initially uniform near-inertial wave (NIW) field with a steady background flow, with the goal of predicting the subsequent organization of the wave…
Effective transport by 2D turbulence: Vortex-gas theory vs. scale-invariant inverse cascade
Julie Meunier, Basile Gallet
The scale-invariant inverse energy cascade is a hallmark of 2D turbulence, with its theoretical energy spectrum observed in both direct numerical simulations (DNS) and laboratory e…
Two-dimensional turbulence above topography: condensation transition and selection of minimum enstrophy solutions
Basile Gallet
We consider two-dimensional flows above topography, revisiting the selective decay (or minimum-enstrophy) hypothesis of Bretherton and Haidvogel. We derive a 'condensed branch' of…
Reversals of a large scale field generated over a turbulent background
Basile Gallet, Johann Herault, Claude Laroche +2
We present a study of several systems in which a large scale field is generated over a turbulent background. These large scale fields usually break a symmetry of the forcing by sel…
