Spontaneous generation of inertial waves from boundary turbulence in a librating sphere [PDF]
In this work, we report the excitation of inertial waves in a librating sphere even for libration frequencies where these waves are not directly forced.

Inertial waves in a rectangular parallelepiped [PDF]
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 ...

Based on horizontal velocity data recorded by a moored acoustic Doppler current profiler (ADCP) deployed on the southwestern continental slope of the East China Sea (ECS), this study investigates the characteristics of near-inertial waves (NIWs) induced ...

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
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.

Mean flow anisotropy without waves in rotating turbulence [PDF]
We tackle the question of how anisotropy in flows subject to background rotation favours structures elongated along the rotation axis, especially in turbulent flows.

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
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]
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 ...

Spreading of near-inertial energy in a 1/12° model of the North Atlantic Ocean [PDF]
Near-inertial energy in the ocean is thought to be redistributed by β-dispersion, whereby near-inertial waves generated at the surface by wind forcing propagate downward and equatorward. In this letter, we examine the spreading of near-inertial energy in
