Limits on the Rate of Conversion of Potential to Kinetic Energy in Quasigeostrophic Turbulence
Flow configurations that maximize the instantaneous rate of conversion from potential to kinetic energy are sought using a combination of analytical and numerical methods. A hydrostatic model is briefly investigated, but the presence of unrealistic ageostrophic flow configurations renders the result...
