A simple model for an internal wave spectrum dominated by non-linear interactions
Hans van Haren, Leo Maas
Ocean motions at frequencies of the internal wave band are generally associated with freely propagating waves that are supported by stable vertical stratification in density. Previ…
On a formal equivalence between electro-magnetic waves in cold plasma and shallow water inertio-gravity waves
Eyal Heifetz, Leo R. M. Maas, Julian Mak +1
The fundamental dispersion relation of transverse electro-magnetic waves in a cold collisionless plasma is formally equivalent to the two dimensional dispersion relation of inertio…
Internal Wave Attractors in 3D Geometries : a dynamical systems approach
Grimaud Pillet, Leo Maas, Thierry Dauxois
We study the propagation in three dimensions of internal waves using ray tracing methods and traditional dynamical systems theory. The wave propagation on a cone that generalizes t…
Particle transport induced by internal wave beam streaming in lateral boundary layers
E. Horne, F. Beckebanze, D. Micard +3
Quantifying the physical mechanisms responsible for the transport of sediments, nutrients and pollutants in the abyssal sea is a long-standing problem, with internal waves regularl…
Internal Wave Attractors in 3D Geometries : trapping by oblique reflection
G. Pillet, E. V. Ermanyuk, L. R. M. Maas +2
We study experimentally the propagation of internal waves in two different three-dimensional (3D) geometries, with a special emphasis on the refractive focusing due to the 3D refle…
Meridional trapping and zonal propagation of inertial waves in a rotating fluid shell
Anna Rabitti, Leo R. M. Maas
Inertial waves propagate in homogeneous rotating fluids, and constitute a challenging and simplified case study for the broader class of inertio-gravity waves, present in all geoph…
