The catalytic effect of near-inertial waves on-plane zonal jets

LF Zhang, JH Xie - Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 2023 - cambridge.org
Zonal jets and inertia–gravity waves are ubiquitous on planets such as Earth, Jupiter and
Saturn. Motivated by the modification of energy flux of balanced flow by inertia–gravity …

Regimes of near-inertial wave dynamics

S Conn, J Callies, A Lawrence - Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 2025 - cambridge.org
When atmospheric storms pass over the ocean, they resonantly force near-inertial waves
(NIWs), internal waves with a frequency close to the local Coriolis frequency, NIWs are …
