Diurnal and semidiurnal internal waves on the southern slope of the Yermak Plateau [PDF]
The Yermak Plateau (YP) is located across the Arctic–Atlantic gateway in the northwest of the Svalbard archipelago. In this region, internal waves are believed to cause intense turbulent mixing and hence influence the heat budget in the Arctic Ocean ...

Effect of Internal Waves on Moving Small Vessels in the Sea
Internal waves are responsible for many important processes in the ocean environment (ocean ventilation, energy transfer from large-scale processes to turbulence, etc.).

Internal Wave Interferometry [PDF]
Internal waves are a ubiquitous and significant means of momentum and energy transport in the oceans, atmosphere, and astrophysical bodies. Here, we show that internal wave propagation in nonuniform density stratifications, which are prevalent throughout nature, has a direct mathematical analogy with the classical optical problem of a Fabry-Perot ...

On the interaction of short linear internal waves with internal solitary waves [PDF]
We study the interaction of small-scale internal wave packets with a large-scale internal solitary wave using high-resolution direct numerical simulations in two dimensions.

Tidal currents flowing over benthic relief (e.g., banks, shelf break) can produce large internal waves. These waves propagate away from their origin and are capable of crossing the continental shelf and seas.

Nonlinear Internal Waves in Synthetic Aperture Radar Imagery [PDF]
Synthetic aperture radar (SAR) has contributed significantly to the study and understanding of oceanic nonlinear internal waves. Although they travel within the ocean's interior, currents associated with internal waves produce variations in ocean surface

Numerical Simulation of the Force Acting on the Riser by Two Internal Solitary Waves
An internal wave is a typical dynamic process. As an internal wave, an internal solitary wave usually occurs between two layers of fluids with different densities.

Seismic Detection of Oceanic Internal Gravity Waves From Subaerial Seismometers
Oceanic internal gravity waves propagate along density stratification within the water column and are ubiquitous. They can propagate thousands of kilometers before breaking in shoaling bathymetry and the ensuing turbulent mixing affects coastal processes

Instabilities in internal gravity waves
Internal gravity waves are propagating disturbances in stably stratified fluids, and can transport momentum and energy over large spatial extents. From a fundamental viewpoint, internal waves are interesting due to the nature of their dispersion relation,

The ocean's interior is filled with waves that can only exist because the ocean is vertically stratified in temperature and salinity. Like waves at the ocean surface, internal waves are restored by gravity. These internal gravity waves are generated by wind, tides, and low-frequency flows.
