Tsunami-generated linear acoustic–gravity waves in the atmosphere with altitude-dependent vertical stratification and horizontal background winds are studied with the long-term goal of real-time tsunami warning. The initial-value problem is examine

Tsunami-generated acoustic–gravity waves have been observed to propagate in the atmosphere up to the ionosphere, where they have an impact on the total electron content. The authors simulate numerically the propagation of two-dimensional linear aco

Mixing efficiency in stratified flows is a measure of the proportion of turbulent kinetic energy that goes into increasing the potential energy of the fluid by irreversible mixing. In this research direct numerical simulations (DNS) and rapid distort

A Fourier method is used to model mountain waves that have nearby turning points in a wind jet. In Fourier space, the propagation equations are solved by ray theory. To correct for the ray singularity at a turning point without time-consuming special

A general linearized ‘shallow-layer’ perturbation model, where the approximately neutral lower layer of thickness h0 is situated below a stable upper layer (i.e. an inversion with temperature change ΔT), is developed for steady, mesoscale atmosp

A method is developed to describe the linear internal wavefield generated by an oscillating source in horizontally moving, depth-dependent background. Ray theory is used to approximate the vertical eigenfunctions. A spatial solution is then obtained

▪ Abstract We review the use of ray models for internal waves, particularly formulations for calculating wave amplitudes along the ray. These are expressed in spatial, wave number, and phase-space coordinates. The choice of formulation affects not

A previously derived approximation to the standard Fourier integral technique for linear mountain waves is extended to include nonhydrostatic effects in a background flow with height-dependent wind and stratification. The approximation involves using

We present some preliminary results from using large-eddy simulation to compute the late wake of a sphere towed at constant speed through a non-stratified and a uniformly stratified fluid. The wake is computed in each case for two values of the Reyno

The ray solution for stationary hydrostatic mountain waves has a singularity along the vertical axis directly over the mountain. We use Maslov's method to improve the ray prediction. The ray solution is determined in the wave-number domain and is the
