Strongly Nonlinear Effects on Determining Internal Solitary Wave Parameters From Surface Signatures With Potential for Remote Sensing Applications

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2023
The inversion of remote sensing signatures of internal solitary waves (ISWs) can retrieve dynamic characteristics in the ocean interior. However, the presence of ubiquitous large‐amplitude ISWs poses challenges to the commonly used weakly nonlinear ...

The Propagation of Nonlinear Internal Waves under the Influence of Variable Topography and Earth’s Rotation in a Two-Layer Fluid

open access: yesFluids, 2020
A nonlinear equation of the Korteweg–de Vries equation usually describes internal solitary waves in the coastal ocean that lead to an exact solitary wave solution. However, in any real application, there exists the Earth’s rotation.

Multimodal structure of baroclinic tides in the South China Sea [PDF]

open access: yesNonlinear Processes in Geophysics, 2010
The modelling of baroclinic tides generated in the northern South China Sea is studied using a fully-nonlinear non-hydrostatic numerical model. The focus of the modelling efforts was on the vertical structure of internal waves in the vicinity of the ...

On internal solitary waves [PDF]

open access: yesTellus, 1979
Earlier investigations of internal solitary waves in stable, stratified shear flows are generalized on the hypothesis that cubic and quadratic nonlinearity may be of comparable significance—or, equivalent, that ? = O(? 2 ), where ?? a / h < 1 and ? = ( h / l ) < 1 for a wave of amplitude a (which may be positive or negative) and length l in a fluid ...
