A class of water wave problems concerns the dynamics of the free interface separating an inviscid, incompressible and irrotational fluid, under the influence of gravity, from a zero-density region. In this note, we present some recent…
Thermal tides are atmospheric planetary-scale waves with periods that are harmonics of the solar day. In the Martian atmosphere thermal tides are known to be especially significant compared to any other known planet. Based on the data set…

The precipitating quasi-geostrophic equations go beyond the (dry) quasi-geostrophic equations by incorporating the effects of moisture. This means that both precipitation and phase changes between a water-vapour phase (outside a cloud) and…

Exact solutions of the linear water-wave problem describing oblique waves over a submerged horizontal cylinder of small (but otherwise fairly arbitrary) cross-section in a two-layer fluid are constructed in the form of convergent series in…
We consider the free boundary problem for two layers of immiscible, viscous, incompressible fluid in a uniform gravitational field, lying above a general rigid bottom in a three-dimensional horizontally periodic setting. We establish the…
