Inertial waves in a rectangular parallelepiped [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
A study of inertial gyroscopic waves in a rotating homogeneous fluid is undertaken both theoretically and numerically. A novel approach is presented to construct a semi-analytical solution of a linear three-dimensional fluid flow in a rotating ...

Seasonal Variability of Near-Inertial Internal Waves in the Deep Central Part of the Black Sea

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022
This observational study is concerned with the seasonal variability of near-inertial internal waves (NIWs) in the central part of the Black Sea. Rotary spectral analysis of the nearly year-long time series of the sea current velocity measurements at 100 ...

Mean flow anisotropy without waves in rotating turbulence [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
We tackle the question of how anisotropy in flows subject to background rotation favours structures elongated along the rotation axis, especially in turbulent flows.

Internal Waves Study on a Narrow Steep Shelf of the Black Sea Using the Spatial Antenna of Line Temperature Sensors

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2020
The results of investigations into internal waves on a narrow steep shelf of the northeastern coast of the Black Sea are presented here. To measure the parameters of internal waves, the spatial antenna of three autonomous line temperature sensors were ...

Pure Inertial Waves Radiating From Low‐Frequency Flows Over Large‐Scale Topography

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2023
Mooring data collected at a flat‐topped seamount suggest the generation of pure inertial waves (PIWs; waves with a dominant frequency equal to the local inertial frequency f) by low‐frequency flows over large‐scale topography.

Surface cooling caused by rare but intense near-inertial wave induced mixing in the tropical Atlantic

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
How the tropical mixed layer of the ocean reacts to near-inertial waves has rarely been observed directly. Here, the authors present new data that shows strongly elevated vertical diffusive heat flux in the presence of near-inertial waves, causing a ...

Oceanic eddies induce a rapid formation of an internal wave continuum

open access: yesCommunications Earth & Environment, 2023
Oceanic internal waves are a major driver for turbulent mixing in the ocean, which controls the global overturning circulation and the oceanic heat and carbon transport. Internal waves are observed to have a continuous energy distribution across all wave

Tidal and Near-Inertial Internal Waves over the Reykjanes Ridge [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Physical Oceanography, 2021
AbstractInternal waves in the semidiurnal and near-inertial bands are investigated using an array of seven moorings located over the Reykjanes Ridge in a cross-ridge direction (57.6°–59.1°N, 28.5°–33.3°W). Continuous measurements of horizontal velocity and temperature for more than 2 years allow us to estimate the kinetic energy density and the energy ...

Interaction of near-inertial waves with an anticyclonic vortex [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Physical Oceanography, 2020
Anticyclonic vortices focus and trap near-inertial waves so that near-inertial energy levels are elevated within the vortex core. Some aspects of this process, including the nonlinear modification of the vortex by the wave, are explained by the existence

High-Frequency Motions in the Southeastern South China Sea During Winter–Spring 2018/2019

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2021
High-frequency motions in the southeastern South China Sea (SCS) have rarely been investigated due to sparse field observations. The vertical distribution and temporal variation of internal tides (ITs) and near-inertial waves (NIWs) near the Nansha area ...
