Waves and instabilities in geophysical and astrophysical flows
Submitted by kraig on Thu, 05/21/2009 - 21:31Summer school and workshop held on the island of Porquerolles, France May 25-31, 2009. The workshop flyer and my course abstract are attached. PDF versions of all the presentations, hopefully including the really nice posters, will be available at the workshop website soon. In the meantime, a gzipped pdf version of my course is attached below. The corresponding keynote file contains movies. Email me if you'd like a copy (38 MB gzipped).

I like this image. I made it as an intro slide for recent talks at Cornell and AGU San Francisco.
Buoyancy driven circulation
Submitted by kraig on Wed, 11/12/2008 - 18:05Motivated in part by the review article of Hughes and Griffiths (Annual Reviews of Fluid Mechanics 2008, Horizontal Convection), in part by an email thread throughout the summer and in part by the Paparella and Young "anti-turbulence" theorem (JFM 2002), we consider idealized horizontal convection focusing on energetics and bounds for the energy transfer rates, in particular the rate of irreversible mixing and buoyancy variance destruction.
Bill Young presented a version of this work at the Sandstrom Symposium at Stockholm University and I also presented a version at the Newton Institute. A pdf of my keynote presentation, along with the revised MS is attached below.
