SUMMARY:Zonal Flow Generation by Convectively Excited Waves\, Plasma P
 hysics (Physics/ECE/NE 922) Seminar\, Prof. Daniel Lecoanet\, Northwes
 tern University
DESCRIPTION:Many natural systems have turbulent\, convective regions a
 djacent to stably-stratified regions. This occurs in most stars\, the 
 Earth’s atmosphere\, and planetary cores. In all these systems\, the
  turbulent convection can excite waves in the stably stratified region
 . Although these waves carry nearly zero net momentum\, they can still
  spontaneously generate zonal flows in the stable layers. In this talk
 \, I will describe recent work to characterize the wave excitation pro
 cess\, as well as the zonal-flow evolution induced by the waves. These
  studies can help interpret recent zonal-flow measurements in the Eart
 h’s atmosphere as well as in red giant stars.<br>
