An Application of WKBJ Theory for Triad Interactions of Internal Gravity Waves in Varying Background Flows

Motivated by the question of whether and how wave-wave interactions should be implemented into atmospheric gravity-wave parametrizations, the modulation of triadic gravity-wave interactions by a slowly varying and vertically sheared mean flow is considered for a non-rotating Boussinesq fluid with co...
