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.

The results of investigations into internal waves on a narrow steep shelf of the northeastern coast of the Black Sea are presented here. To measure the parameters of internal waves, the spatial antenna of three autonomous line temperature sensors were ...

A Study on Brightness Reversal of Internal Waves in the Celebes Sea Using Himawari-8 Images
A geostationary meteorological satellite is located at a fixed point above the equator, which can continuously observe internal waves and provides great advantages in research on changes in the generation and propagation of internal waves.

On the internal wave variability during the Internal Wave Experiment (IWEX) [PDF]
The relation between internal wave variability and larger and smaller scales of motion is investigated, using the IWEX data set. To investigate the role of internal waves in the vertical diffusion of large scale momentum, the time variability of the vertical flux of horizontal internal wave momentum (estimated from temperature and current data) is ...

Dependence of Internal Wave Bolus Transport on Pycnocline Thickness
A bolus is a vortex formed by an internal wave propagating upslope with the shoaling wave. The amount of sediment and biota transported by boluses travelling up the world's continental slopes and onto the continental shelves has not been established but ...

We are concerned with the steady wave motions in a 2-fluid system with constant densities. This is a free boundary problem in which the lighter fluid is bounded above by a free surface and is separated from the heavier one down below by an interface. By using a contractive mapping principle type argument.

Orbital Stability of Internal Waves [PDF]
This paper studies the nonlinear stability of capillary-gravity waves propagating along the interface dividing two immiscible fluid layers of finite depth. The motion in both regions is governed by the incompressible and irrotational Euler equations, with the density of each fluid being constant but distinct.

Large amplitude internal solitary waves over a shelf [PDF]
Dynamics of large amplitude internal waves in two-layers of shallow water is considered. It is demonstrated that in laboratory experiments the subsurface waves of depression over a shelf may be simulated by internal symmetric solitary waves of the mode 2

The mechanisms of manifestation of internal waves in satellite data of the optical range are considered for the mouth area of the Danube. Three main mechanisms for the manifestation of internal waves are identified – the previously described dynamic (due
