Energy and Buoyancy Transport by Inertia-Gravity Waves in Non-Linear Stratifications. Application to the Ocean
Inertia-gravity waves contribute to the worldwide transport of energy and momentum in the oceans, and theyplay a crucial role in stratified mixing through non-linear processes transferring energy from scales to scalessuch as super-harmonic generation or triadic resonant instability.Of primary releva...

Inertia-gravity waves contribute to the worldwide transport of energy and momentum in the oceans, and theyplay a crucial role in stratified mixing through non-linear processes transferring energy from scales to scalessuch as super-harmonic generation or triadic resonant instability.Of primary relevance are these waves to the Arctic Ocean, and more particularly energy transport by internalwaves created by storms at the surface of the ocean.
