TITLE: Forcing and dissipation of internal waves.
Stratification of the density in an incompressible fluid is responsible for the propagation of internal waves. In domains with topography, the interaction of these waves with the boundary produces a cascade towards small wavelengths. Although the equations are linear, this phenomenology is reminiscent from
turbulence. Speaker(s): Laure Saint Raymond (ENS, Lyons)
