Improved upper-ocean thermodynamical structure modeling with combined effects of surface waves and M2 internal tides on vertical mixing: a case study for the Indian Ocean [PDF]
Geoscientific Model Development, 2022 Surface waves and internal tides have a great contribution to vertical mixing processes in the upper ocean. In this study, three mixing schemes, including non-breaking surface-wave-generated turbulent mixing, mixing induced by the wave transport flux ...

Strait of Kara Gates: A Region of Strong Internal Tides in the Arctic Seas
Russian Journal of Earth Sciences, 2023 This is a review paper about measurements of internal tides in the Kara Gates Strait. Kara Gates is one of the straits where intense internal tides are generated by tidal currents overflowing the transversal sill of the strait.

Remote Sensing, 2021 In this study, strong internal tides were observed on the continental slope northeast of Taiwan Island. Owing to the lack of long-term observations, these tides’ intraseasonal variability and the impact of the Kuroshio Current remain unclear.

A practical scheme to introduce explicit tidal forcing into an OGCM [PDF]
Ocean Science, 2013 A practical scheme is proposed to explicitly introduce tides into ocean general circulation models (OGCM). In this scheme, barotropic linear response to the tidal forcing is calculated by the time differential equations modified for ocean tides, instead ...

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023 When the barotropic tide encounters variable bathymetry, fluctuating flow along a topographic slope generates baroclinic tides, or internal tides. There is growing evidence that these internal tides can affect primary production in the euphotic zone ...

Are Any Coastal Internal Tides Predictable? [PDF]
Oceanography, 2012 Surface tides are the heartbeat of the ocean. Because they are controlled by Earth's motion relative to other astronomical objects in our solar system, surface tides act like clockwork and generate highly deterministic ebb and flow familiar to all ...

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023 Recent mooring observations on the continental slope on the east side of the Dongsha Island in the northeastern South China Sea (SCS) showed that an along-slope bottom current can be generated when internal tides obliquely incident to the slope are ...

Characteristics of Internal Tides from ECCO Salinity Estimates and Observations in the Bay of Bengal
Remote Sensing, 2023 Internal waves (IWs) are generated in all the oceans, and their amplitudes are large, especially in regions that receive a large amount of freshwater from nearby rivers, which promote highly stratified waters.

Sensitivity of internal tide generation in Hawaii
Geophysical Research Letters, 2012 Energy from the barotropic tide is transferred into the baroclinic tide over topographic gradients, which provides a mechanism for the ocean boundaries to communicate with the deep ocean, to close energy budgets, and as a source of flux affecting nutrient supply and larval transport.

The Impact of Abyssal Hill Roughness on the Benthic Tide
Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, 2021 The flow of tides over rough bathymetry in the deep ocean generates baroclinic motion including internal waves and bottom‐trapped tides. The stresses generated by this motion feedback on the amplitude and phase of the large‐scale tide.
