Spectrum of shallow water gravity waves generated by confined two-dimensional turbulence

We apply Lighthill's theory of aeroacoustic sound generation to shallow water gravity waves generated by spatially confined two-dimensional turbulence. We show that the frequency spectrum of surface waves at large distances from the source of turbulence is, under suitable conditions, proportion...
