We report on the statistical analysis of stratified turbulence forced by large-scale waves. The setup mimics some features of the tidal forcing of turbulence in the ocean interior at submesoscales. Our experiments are performed in the…
The fluid flow around a bluff body is complex and time dependent, which also contains a wide range of time and length scales. The first few eigenmodes of the proper orthogonal decomposition (POD) of such a flow provide significant insight…
