Abstract: Large-amplitude gravity-inertial waves have been observed in stratified seas. These waves, of a shorter period than the Coriolis period, are linked to a gust of wind. Numerous theories have been proposed to explain these ...

Abstract: The effect of an isolated canyon interrupting a long continental shelf of constant cross section on the along-isobath, oscillatory motion of a homogeneous, incompressible fluid is considered by employing laboratory experiments ...

Abstract: Alongshore oscillatory flows over an elongated topographic feature next to a vertical wall for a homogeneous, rotating fluid were investigated by means of numerical and laboratory experiments. The physical experiments were ...
