Cascades and transitions in turbulent flows

A Alexakis, L Biferale - Physics Reports, 2018 - Elsevier
Turbulent flows are characterized by the non-linear cascades of energy and other inviscid
invariants across a huge range of scales, from where they are injected to where they are …

Ocean circulation kinetic energy: Reservoirs, sources, and sinks

R Ferrari, C Wunsch - Annual Review of Fluid Mechanics, 2009 - annualreviews.org
The ocean circulation is a cause and consequence of fluid scale interactions ranging from
millimeters to more than 10,000 km. Although the wind field produces a large energy input to …

One-dimensional wave turbulence

V Zakharov, F Dias, A Pushkarev - Physics Reports, 2004 - Elsevier
The problem of turbulence is one of the central problems in theoretical physics. While the
theory of fully developed turbulence has been widely studied, the theory of wave turbulence …

Quantitative experimental observation of weak inertial-wave turbulence

E Monsalve, M Brunet, B Gallet, PP Cortet - Physical Review Letters, 2020 - APS
We report the quantitative experimental observation of the weak inertial-wave turbulence
regime of rotating turbulence. We produce a statistically steady homogeneous turbulent flow …

Internal wave turbulence in a stratified fluid with and without eigenmodes of the experimental domain

N Lanchon, DO Mora, E Monsalve, PP Cortet - Physical Review Fluids, 2023 - APS
We present laboratory experiments on turbulence in a linearly stratified fluid driven by an
ensemble of internal gravity waves which approaches statistical homogeneity and …

Toward regional characterizations of the oceanic internal wavefield

KL Polzin, YV Lvov - Reviews of geophysics, 2011 - Wiley Online Library
Many major oceanographic internal wave observational programs of the last 4 decades are
reanalyzed in order to characterize variability of the deep ocean internal wavefield. The …

Energy cascade in internal-wave attractors

C Brouzet, EV Ermanyuk, S Joubaud… - Europhysics …, 2016 - iopscience.iop.org
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 turbulence in rapidly rotating flows

F Bellet, FS Godeferd, JF Scott… - Journal of Fluid …, 2006 - cambridge.org
An asymptotic quasi-normal Markovian (AQNM) model is developed in the limit of small
Rossby number, the spectrum develops an inertial range in the usual fashion as well as …

Resolving the paradox of oceanic large-scale balance and small-scale mixing

R Marino, A Pouquet, D Rosenberg - Physical review letters, 2015 - APS
A puzzle of oceanic dynamics is the contrast between the observed geostrophic balance,
involving gravity, pressure gradient, and Coriolis forces, and the necessary turbulent …
