Postdoc: Interactions between large structures, gravity waves and micro-turbulence

The variability of meteorological and climate variables, is composed of fluctuations that occur over a large range of spatial and temporal scales, from a few hundred meters (convection) to planetary scale (hemispheric teleconnections), and from a few minutes to decades. Recent studies have shown interactions between large-scale structures, medium-scale gravity waves, and small-scale micro-turbulence, challenging the traditional view of clear separations in these processes. This raises fundamental questions about the influence of large structures on small scales and vice versa.The large scale (LS) phenomena, such as quasi-2D eddies and Rossby Waves, interact with smaller scales like gravity waves (GW) and micro-turbulence (MiT). These interactions are crucial for understanding atmospheric dynamics, including cloud formation, precipitation, and energy budget.
