Long-Range Propagation of the Semidiurnal Internal Tide from the Hawaiian Ridge
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The northeastward progression of the semidiurnal internal tide from French Frigate Shoals (FFS), Hawaii, is studied with an array of six simultaneous profiling moorings spanning 25.5°?37.1°N (≈1400 km) and 13-yr-long Ocean ...
Parametric Subharmonic Instability of the Internal Tide at 29°N
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: bservational evidence is presented for transfer of energy from the internal tide to near-inertial motions near 29°N in the Pacific Ocean. The transfer is accomplished via parametric subharmonic instability (PSI), which ...
The Latitudinal Dependence of Shear and Mixing in the Pacific Transiting the Critical Latitude for PSI
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: urbulent mixing rates are inferred from measurements spanning 25°?37°N in the Pacific Ocean. The observations were made as part of the Internal Waves Across the Pacific experiment, designed to investigate the long-range ...
Satellite Investigation of the M2 Internal Tide in the Tasman Sea
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThe M2 internal tide in the Tasman Sea is investigated using sea surface height measurements made by multiple altimeter missions from 1992 to 2012. Internal tidal waves are extracted by two-dimensional plane wave ...
Observations of the Tasman Sea Internal Tide Beam
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractLow-mode internal tides, a dominant part of the internal wave spectrum, carry energy over large distances, yet the ultimate fate of this energy is unknown. Internal tides in the Tasman Sea are generated at Macquarie ...
