Explore a 54-minute lecture from Northwestern University's Daniel Lecoanet at IPAM's Rotating Turbulence Workshop, examining the fascinating relationship between rotating convection and internal wave generation. Dive into groundbreaking research that challenges previous theoretical predictions about how rotation affects wave excitation in natural systems. Learn about numerical simulations using internal heating to achieve diffusion-free scalings, which better represent natural phenomena. Discover why, contrary to established theories, rotation appears to have minimal influence on the wave excitation process in convective regions adjacent to stably-stratified areas. Gain insights into the behavior of inertia-gravity waves and their generation mechanisms in rotating systems, with applications relevant to various natural phenomena.
