Energetics of mode-1 internal waves interacting with topographic ridges of varying height and slope

HIGHLIGHTS

• What: The aim of this study is to systematically explore the energetics and ensuing mixing from the interaction of low-mode internal waves with a ridge, which is a common archetypal topographic feature found in the ocean. The analysis presented in Kang and amp; Fringer (among others) shows that terms (iv)-(vi) minimally contribute to the overall energy flux and these findings were corroborated in the analysis . Resolution matters, but as this analysis shows, a simulation does not need to be DNS to correctly replicate the non-hydrostatic flow features such as overturns and bores that are . . .
