Scale dependence of near-inertial wave’s concentration in anticyclones
Near-inertial waves (NIWs), pervasive and dominating the mixing process in the upper ocean, are observed to concentrate in anticyclones. Based on the NIW amplitude equation derived by Young & Ben Jelloul, which captures dispersion and effects of vortical flow’s advection and refraction, this...
