This project works on methods for decomposing flows into vortical, balanced motions and inertia gravity waves. Some of our techniques are based on linear, global modes, others use fully nonlinear, high-order techniques in idealized settings. We will now close the methodological gaps between the two approaches, advance practical implementations, and use these tools to quantify non-hydrostatic effects in km-scale atmospheric models, quantify wave emission in the ocean, and advance our understanding of spontaneous loss of balance. Further, we will research the use of machine learning for some of these tasks.
