We have built a Fizeau fiber interferometer to investigate the internal cylindrical defects in an aluminum plate based on laser ultrasonic techniques. The ultrasound is excited in the plate by a Q-switched Nd:YAG laser. When the ultrasonic waves interact

A Model Sensitivity Study of Ocean Surface Wave Modulation Induced by Internal Waves
Nonlinear internal waves are an upper ocean phenomenon that drives horizontal surface current gradients, which in turn modulate ocean surface waves. Under certain conditions, this wave‐current interaction creates ocean surface roughness heterogeneity, in

An Introduction to the Special Issue on Internal Waves [PDF]
This special issue of Oceanography presents a survey of recent work on internal waves in the ocean. The undersea analogue to the surface waves we see breaking on beaches, internal waves play an important role in transferring heat, energy, and momentum in

Internal Waves on the Washington Continental Shelf [PDF]
The low-frequency oceanography of the Washington continental shelf has been studied in great detail over the last several decades owing in part to its high productivity but relatively weak upwelling winds compared to other systems.

Variability of Internal Wave Strain Over the Western Boundary Region in the North Atlantic
Based on the CTD profiles and mooring measurements of the Line W program in the North Atlantic about 35°N/70°W, we investigated the spatial variability of internal wave-induced strain variance along the Line W section and the associated reasons.

Noise of Internal Solitary Waves Measured by Mooring-Mounted Hydrophone Array in the South China Sea
Internal solitary waves in the South China Sea have attracted attention because of their large amplitude and high rate of occurrence. Internal solitary waves have a substantial influence on underwater sound propagation and ambient noise.

Mass and momentum transfer by solitary internal waves in a shelf zone [PDF]
The evolution of large amplitude internal waves propagating towards the shore and more specifically the run up phase over the "swash" zone is considered.

The Generation of Nonlinear Internal Waves [PDF]
Nonlinear internal waves are found in many parts of the world ocean. Their widespread distribution is a result of their origin in the barotropic tide and in the variety of ways they can be generated, including by lee waves, tidal beams, resonance, plumes,

Internal waves in the ocean play an important role in turbulence generation due to wave-breaking processes and mixing of the ocean. Airborne radar images of internal waves and ocean eddies north of Svalbard suggested that ocean eddies could generate ...
