This type of turbulence is generally caused when strong winds hit a mountain range (mostly perpendicular) and their flow is ...

The Rocky Mountains are known for their complex terrain, and crossing above them leads to mountain wave turbulence, where the airflow is disrupted by that very terrain. These waves can lead to ...

In the 1970s, Soviet scientists proposed that turbulence occurs when sound waves deviate from equilibrium and reach large amplitudes. The theory of wave turbulence applies to many other wave ...
