A Theory of Large-Amplitude Kelvin WavesSource: Journal of Physical Oceanography:;1973:;Volume( 003 ):;issue: 001::page 57Author:Bennett, John R.

Abstract: A simple nonlinear model of the generation of Kelvin waves is presented and applied to internal Kelvin waves in Lake Michigan. It is shown that a Kelvin wave which has a wavelength longer than the Rossby radius of deformation steepens. This may explain ?warm fronts? in records of nearshore temperature in Lake Michigan.
