Global rate and spectral characteristics of internal gravity wave generation by geostrophic flow over topography

The rate of generation of internal gravity waves in the lee of small length scale topography by geostrophic flow in the World Ocean was estimated using linear theory with corrections for finite amplitude topography. Several global data sets were combined for the calculation including an ocean circul...
