The increased drift of steep focusing surface gravity waves
Aidan Blaser, Luc Lenain, Nick Pizzo
Irrotational and monochromatic surface gravity waves possess a mean Lagrangian drift which transports mass and enhances mixing in the upper ocean. In the ocean, where many surface…
Momentum, energy and vorticity balances in deep-water surface gravity waves
Aidan Blaser, Raphaël Benamran, A. Bia Villas Bôas +2
The particle trajectories in irrotational, incompressible and inviscid deep-water surface gravity waves are open, leading to a net drift in the direction of wave propagation common…
Transition to turbulence in wind-drift layers
Gregory LeClaire Wagner, Nick Pizzo, Luc Lenain +1
A light breeze rising over calm water initiates an intricate chain of events that culminates in a centimeters-deep turbulent shear layer capped by gravity-capillary ripples. At fir…
