Wave scattering by an isolated cyclogeostrophic vortex
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The propagation paths of oceanic internal tides are influenced by their interactions with vortices. We examine the scattering effect that an isolated vortex in (cyclo)geostrophic balance has on a rotating shallow-water plane wave. We run a suite of simulations in which we vary the non-dimensional vorticity of the vortex, $Ro$ , the relative scale of the vortex size to the Rossby radius of deformation, $Bu$ , and the size of the vortex compared with the plane wave wavelength, $K$ . We compare the scattered wave flux pattern with ray-tracing predictions. Ray-tracing predictions are relatively insensitive to $K$ in the $1< K<4$ range we investigate; however, they generally underestimate the broad angles of the shallow-water wave scattering patterns, especially for the lower end of the $K$ range. We then measure the ratio of the scattered wave energy flux to the incoming wave energy flux, denoted by $S$ , for each simulation. We find that $S$ follows a power law $S \propto (FrK)^2$ when $S < 0.2$ , where $Fr = Ro/\sqrt {Bu}$ is the Froude number. When $S>0.2$ , it starts plateauing.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
