Oceanic eddies induce a rapid formation of an internal wave continuum
Communications Earth & Environment, 2023 Oceanic internal waves are a major driver for turbulent mixing in the ocean, which controls the global overturning circulation and the oceanic heat and carbon transport. Internal waves are observed to have a continuous energy distribution across all wave

Spreading of near-inertial energy in a 1/12° model of the North Atlantic Ocean [PDF]
, 2007 Near-inertial energy in the ocean is thought to be redistributed by β-dispersion, whereby near-inertial waves generated at the surface by wind forcing propagate downward and equatorward. In this letter, we examine the spreading of near-inertial energy in

High-Frequency Motions in the Southeastern South China Sea During Winter–Spring 2018/2019
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021 High-frequency motions in the southeastern South China Sea (SCS) have rarely been investigated due to sparse field observations. The vertical distribution and temporal variation of internal tides (ITs) and near-inertial waves (NIWs) near the Nansha area ...

Response of internal solitary waves to tropical storm Washi in the northwestern South China Sea [PDF]
Annales Geophysicae, 2011 Based on in-situ time series data from an array of temperature sensors and an acoustic Doppler current profiler on the continental shelf of the northwestern South China Sea, a sequence of internal solitary waves (ISWs) were observed during the passage

Dynamical Tides in Compact White Dwarf Binaries: Influence of Rotation [PDF]
, 2014 Tidal interactions play an important role in the evolution and ultimate fate of compact white dwarf (WD) binaries. Not only do tides affect the pre-merger state (such as temperature and rotation rate) of the WDs, but they may also determine which systems

Near-inertial wave scattering by random flows [PDF]
, 2011 The impact of a turbulent flow on wind-driven oceanic near-inertial waves is examined using a linearised shallow-water model of the mixed layer. Modelling the flow as a homogeneous and stationary random process with spatial scales comparable to the ...

Stalling of near‐inertial waves in a cyclone
Geophysical Research Letters, 2008 Observations at the edge of the Loop Current after hurricane Katrina show inertial energy amplified at a depth of approximately 600∼700 m. Ray‐analysis using the eddy field obtained from a numerical simulation with data assimilation suggests that the ...

Open-ocean interior moored sensor turbulence estimates, below a Meddy [PDF]
, 2019 A one-year time series of moored high-resolution temperature T-sensor data from 1455 m depth on a 3900 m long line in about 5300 m of water in the NE-Atlantic Canary Basin are dominated by salinity (over-)compensated intrusions arising from the effects ...
