Professor W. R. Young
Thursday 28 June 2012, 16:00-17:00
Zonostrophic instability
â ī¸ Important: An informal out-of-term seminar organized by Prof. McIntyre.
- đ¤ Speaker: Professor W. R. Young
- đ Date & Time: Thursday 28 June 2012, 16:00 - 17:00
- đ Venue: MR14 (NB not the usual MR2), Centre for Mathematical Sciences, Wilberforce Road, Cambridge
Abstract
Zonostrophic instability is one of several mechanisms for generating and maintaining multiple jets in geophysical and planetary atmospheres and oceans. Professor Young will give an informal talk on his current exploration of its workings. (Professor Young was recently elected to the US National Academy of Sciences and is well known for his clever theoretical work on many problems in atmosphere-ocean dynamics.)
Series This talk is part of the Fluid Mechanics (DAMTP) series.
