Description
The excitation of gravity waves by penetrative convective plumes is investigated using 2D direct simulations of compressible convection. The oscillation field is measured by a new technique based on the projection of our simulation data onto the theoretical g-modes solutions of the associated linear eigenvalue problem. This allows us to determine both the excited modes and their corresponding amplitudes accurately.
