Response of internal solitary waves to tropical storm Washi in the northwestern South China Sea [PDF]

open access: yesAnnales 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

High-Frequency Motions in the Southeastern South China Sea During Winter–Spring 2018/2019

open access: yesFrontiers 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 ...

Dynamical Tides in Compact White Dwarf Binaries: Influence of Rotation [PDF]

open access: yes, 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

Open-ocean interior moored sensor turbulence estimates, below a Meddy [PDF]

open access: yes, 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 ...

Rotating quantum turbulence in superfluid 4He in the T=0 limit [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Observations of quantum turbulence in pure superfluid 4He in a rotating container are reported. New techniques of large-scale forcing (rotational oscillations of the cubic container) and detecting (monitoring ion transport along the axis of rotation ...

Turbulent exchanges between near-inertial waves and balanced flows

open access: yesJournal of Fluid Mechanics, 2020
Wind generated near-inertial waves are ubiquitous in the upper ocean. An improved understanding of near-inertial wave dynamics following their excitation in the ocean and their subsequent interaction with mesoscale geostrophic balanced flows is key to ...

Amplification of typhoon-generated near-inertial internal waves observed near the Tsushima oceanic front in the Sea of Japan

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
It is not fully understood how near-inertial kinetic energy (NIKE) is spatially distributed near Tsushima oceanic front (TOF) as a typhoon travels across the region.

Enhanced internal tidal mixing in the Philippine Sea mesoscale environment [PDF]

open access: yesNonlinear Processes in Geophysics, 2021
Turbulent mixing in the ocean interior is mainly attributed to internal wave breaking; however, the mixing properties and the modulation effects of mesoscale environmental factors are not well known.
