From topographic internal gravity waves to turbulence

S Sarkar, A Scotti - Annual Review of Fluid Mechanics, 2017 - annualreviews.org
Internal gravity waves are a key process linking the large-scale mechanical forcing of the
oceans to small-scale turbulence and mixing. In this review, we focus on internal waves …
