Model Simulation of M₂ Internal Tide at the Mariana Double Ridges

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2021
In this study, M2 tidal energy and tide-induced mixing in the Mariana double ridges are investigated with a high-resolution three-dimensional non-hydrostatic numerical model and baroclinic energy budget analysis.

M₂ Internal‐Tide Generation in STORMTIDE2 [PDF]

Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, 2020
AbstractInternal‐tide generation has been quantified using both pressure work and energy conversion. When calculating the pressure work from simulated or observed data, the internal‐tide pressure has to be decomposed from the full pressure, for which various options exist.

Fiber-optic observations of internal waves and tides

Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, 2023
Although typically used to measure dynamic strain from seismic and acoustic waves, Rayleigh-based distributed acoustic sensing (DAS) is also sensitive to temperature, offering longer range and higher sensitivity to small temperature perturbations than conventional Raman-based distributed temperature sensing.

Limiting amplitudes of fully nonlinear interfacial tides and solitons [PDF]

Nonlinear Processes in Geophysics, 2016
A new two-fluid layer model consisting of forced rotation-modified Boussinesq equations is derived for studying tidally generated fully nonlinear, weakly nonhydrostatic dispersive interfacial waves.

Sea Surface Signature of Internal Tides [PDF]

Geophysical Research Letters, 2019
AbstractThe upper ocean is energetic at scales below the Rossby deformation radius owing to the existence of internal waves and submesoscale fronts and vortices. These contribute significantly to energy dissipation, tracer mixing, and exchanges between the ocean surface layer, the ocean interior, and the atmospheric boundary layer.

Satellite Evidence for Strengthened M2 Internal Tides in the Past 30 Years

Geophysical Research Letters, 2023
Satellite altimetry sea surface height measurements from 1993 to 2022 are used to show the strengthened mode‐1 M2 internal tides in the past 30 years. Two mode‐1 M2 internal tide models M9509 and M1019 are constructed using the data in 1995–2009 and 2010–

Review of research in internal-wave and internal-tide deposits of China

Journal of Palaeogeography, 2013
Study of internal-wave and internal-tide deposits is a very young research field in deep-water sedimentology. It has been just twenty years since the first example of internal-wave and internal-tide deposits was identified in the stratigraphic record ...

Internal-tide vertical structure and steric sea surface height signature south of New Caledonia revealed by glider observations [PDF]

Ocean Science
In this study, we exploit autonomous underwater glider data to infer internal-tide dynamics south of New Caledonia, an internal-tide-generation hot spot in the southwestern tropical Pacific.

Analysis of mooring-observed bottom current on the northern continental shelf of the South China Sea

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023
The bottom current is an important component of the three-dimensional ocean circulation, which is of significance for the safeties of ocean bottom engineering and facilities, the research on sediment and pollutant transports, and the ecological ...

Resemblance of the global depth distribution of internal-tide generation and cold-water coral occurrences [PDF]

Ocean Science
Internal tides are known to be an important source of mixing in the oceans, especially in the bottom boundary layer. The depth of internal-tide generation therefore seems important for benthic life and the formation of cold-water coral mounds, but ...
