Inertia-Gravity Waves Emitted from Balanced Flow: Observations, Properties, and Consequences

This paper describes laboratory observations of inertia-gravity waves emitted from balanced fluid flow. In a rotating two-layer annulus experiment, the wavelength of the inertia-gravity waves is very close to the deformation radius. Their amplitude varies linearly with Rossby number in the range 0.0...
