Abstract:
The frequent presence of ripples on the free surface of water. on both thin film flows and ponds or lakes motivates this theoretical investigation into the propagation of ripples on gravity waves. These ripples are treated as "slowly-varying" waves in a reference frame where the gravity wave flow is steady. The methods used are those of the averaged Lagrangian (Whitham 1965,1967,1974) and the averaged equations of motion (Phillips 1966) which are shown to be equivalent. The capillary wave modulation is taken to be steady in the reference frame which brings the gravity wave, or gravity driven f

Abstract:
Internal gravity waves play a fundamental role in the dynamics of stably stratified regions of the atmosphere and ocean. In addition to the radiation of momentum and energy remote from generation sites, internal waves drive vertical transport of heat and mass through the ocean by wave breaking and the mixing subsequently produced. Identifying regions where internal gravity waves contribute to ocean mixing and quantifying this mixing are therefore important for accurate climate and weather predictions. Field studies report significantly enhanced measurements of turbulence near 'rough' ocean top

Internal waves carry more available energy than any other transmission system on Earth: lunar diurnal excitation drives 1 TW of wave power inside the world's oceans. Energy is transmitted over thousands of kilometres and individual waves may be hundreds of metres high. Where they break, they deposit their energy, and, in such regions, they greatly enhance the vertical transport of carbon dioxide, oxygen and heat. Despite their significance, much remains to be understood about internal waves, and this thesis explores some of these questions using a combination of experiments and theory. One way

Internal gravity waves have an important effect on the large-scale circulation of the middle atmosphere, which is conditioned by the deposition of momentum due to their breaking. The propagation of gravity waves is influenced by the properties of the background wind.

It begins by describing general features of the atmosphere and gravity wave propagation. The basic equations of fluid flow within the atmosphere are derived. These lead via the WKB ap

The dynamics of the atmosphere and ocean are dominated by slowly evolving, large-scale motions. However, fast, small-scale motions in the form of inertia-gravity waves are ubiquitous. These waves are of great importance for the circulation of the atmosphere and oceans, mainly because of the momentum and energy they transport and because of the mixing they create upon breaking. So far the study of inertia-gravity waves has answered a number of questions about their propagation and dissipation, but many aspects of their generation remain poorly understood.

In this thesis we work on a model of string inflation called fibre inflation. We investigate whether this inflationary model can predict a tensor-to-scalar-ratio of order 0.01 which might be detectable in the near future. The main constraint comes from the amount of axionic dark radiation produced from the inflaton decay at reheating. Very light axions are a generic feature of 4D string models and behave as extra neutrino species.
