Starting from the classical formulation of the weak turbulence theory in a density stratified fluid, we derive a simplified version of the kinetic equation of internal gravity wave turbulence. This equation allows us to uncover scaling laws…
The internal-wave (IW) continuum of a regional ocean model is studied in terms of the vertical spectral kinetic-energy (KE) fluxes and transfers at high vertical wavenumbers. Previous work has shown that this model permits a partial…
In rotating stratified flows including in the atmosphere and ocean, inertia-gravity waves (IGWs) often coexist with a geostrophically balanced turbulent flow. Advection and refraction by this flow lead to wave scattering, redistributing IGW…
We investigate the scale-locality of subgrid-scale (SGS) energy flux and inter-band energy transfers defined by the sharp spectral filter. We show by rigorous bounds, physical arguments and numerical simulations that the spectral SGS flux…
Induced diffusion (ID), an important mechanism of spectral energy transfer in the internal gravity wave (IGW) field, plays a significant role in driving turbulent dissipation in the ocean interior. In this study, we revisit the ID mechanism…
We analyze analytically and numerically the scale invariant stationary solution to the internal wave kinetic equation. Our analysis of the resonant energy transfers shows that the leading order contributions are given (i) by triads with…
Inertia-gravity waves (IGWs) play an essential role in the terrestrial atmospheric dynamics as they can lead to energy and momentum flux when propagating upwards. An open question is to which extent IGWs contribute to the total energy and…
Nonlinear interaction and breaking of internal ocean waves are responsible for much of the interior ocean mixing, affecting ocean carbon storage and the global overturning circulation. These interactions may affect the observed Garrett-Munk…
We investigate the energy cascade in wall-bounded turbulence by analysing the interscale transfer between streamwise and spanwise length scales in periodic channels. This transfer originates from the nonlinear interactions in the advective…
One of the pivotal questions in the dynamics of the oceans is related to the cascade of mechanical energy in the abyss and its contribution to mixing. Here, we propose internal wave attractors in the large amplitude regime as a unique…
Internal gravity waves are an essential feature of stratified media, such as oceans and atmospheres. To investigate their dynamics, we perform simulations of the forced-dissipated kinetic equation describing the evolution of the energy…
We calculate the net energy per unit time exchanged between two sets of modes in a generic system governed by a three-wave kinetic equation. Our calculation is based on the property of detailed energy conservation of the triadic resonant…
We investigate the effect of wave-eddy interaction and dissipation of internal gravity waves propagating in a coherent meso-scale eddy simulated using a novel numerical model called the Internal Wave Energy Model based on the…
A fully nonlinear non-dispersive energy balance for surfzone waves is derived based on the nonlinear shallow water equations (NLSWE) to study the nearshore dynamics of infragravity (IG) waves. Based on simulations of waves on a relatively…
We investigate the dynamics of inertia-gravity wave modes in 3D rotating stratified fluids. We start by deriving a reduced PDE, the GGG model, consisting of only wave-mode interactions. In principle, comparing this model to the full…
Through basin-scale circulations, the ocean regulates global distributions of heat, nutrients, and greenhouse gases. To properly predict the future of the ocean under climate change, we need to develop a thorough understanding of the…
We consider the spectral transfers of sign-definite invariants in general wave turbulence systems equipped with a wave kinetic equation. We develop a formalism to investigate and to characterize these transfers, based on the ability to…
Fronts and near-inertial waves are energetic motions in the upper ocean that can interact and provide a route for kinetic energy (KE) dissipation of balanced oceanic flows. A quasilinear model is developed to study the KE exchanges between…
Energy transfer among various spectral components of fluctuating physical parameters in plasma occurs due to the nonlinear interactions, but these effects are typically not captured by the traditional linear spectral methods. Plasma density…
We argue that the physics of interacting Kelvin Waves (KWs) is highly non-trivial and cannot be understood on the basis of pure dimensional reasoning. A consistent theory of KW turbulence in superfluids should be based upon explicit…
