Generation of inertia-gravity waves by a time-dependent baroclinic wave in the laboratory
A novel technique is used to visualise and measure a baroclinically unstable flow in a two-layer, rotating annulus experiment in the laboratory with very high resolution in space and time. It was found that small-scale, high-frequency waves were generated in certain preferred locations within the fl...
