High-Frequency Internal Waves on the Oregon Continental Shelf
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Measurements of vertical velocity by isopycnal-following, neutrally buoyant floats deployed on the Oregon shelf during the summers of 2000 and 2001 were used to characterize internal gravity waves on the shelf using ...
Large-Amplitude Internal Solitary Waves Observed in the Northern South China Sea: Properties and Energetics
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ive large-amplitude internal solitary waves (ISWs) propagating westward on the upper continental slope in the northern South China Sea were observed in May?June 2011 with nearly full-depth measurements of velocity, ...
Trapped Core Formation within a Shoaling Nonlinear Internal Wave
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: arge-amplitude (100?200 m) nonlinear internal waves (NLIWs) were observed on the continental slope in the northern South China Sea nearly diurnally during the spring tide. The evolution of one NLIW as it propagated up the ...
