Generalized Transport Characterizations for Short Oceanic Internal Waves in a Sea of Long Waves
Yuri V Lvov, Kurt L Polzin
Internal waves in the ocean interact in triads. Early work emphasized the importance of extreme-scale separated interactions in which two large wavenumber waves interact with one s…

On the Origins of the Oceanic Ultraviolet Catastrophe
Giovanni Dematteis, Kurt L. Polzin, Yuri V. Lvov
We provide a first-principles analysis of the energy fluxes in the oceanic internal wavefield. The resulting formula is remarkably similar to the renowned phenomenological formula…

Resonant and Near-Resonant Internal Wave Interactions
Yuri V. Lvov, Kurt L. Polzin, Naoto Yokoyama
We report evaluations of a resonant kinetic equation that suggest the slow time evolution of the Garrett and Munk spectrum is {\em not}, in fact, slow. Instead nonlinear transfers…
