Observations of Internal Lee Wave Generation

Abstract

My interests are in oceanic phenomena that contribute to stirring and mixing in order to understand their impact on larger scales. Phenomena of interest range from the meso- (10 km) to the microscale (1 cm), with an emphasis on their interactions. They include internal waves, tides, potential-vorticity-carrying finestructure (vortical mode), turbulence and double diffusion.
