Long Weakly Nonlinear Internal Waves
2001In this chapter we study trivial nonlinear effects appearing while long internal waves propagate. There may be two situations and each of them needs its own analysis. The first is the propagation of internal waves in shallow water (e.g., in a shallow sea like the Baltic Sea) when the wavelength λ considerably exceeds the sea’s depth H.

Nonlinear surface and internal waves in stratified shear flow
Geophysical & Astrophysical Fluid Dynamics, 1990Abstract The propagation of solitary waves in a two-layer fluid with shear is studied in the long-wave shallow-water approximation. We show that, to the first order in the perturbation, the wave motion is described by the Korteweg-de Vries equation, whose coefficients now depend on the shear present.

Stability of Nonlinear Periodic Internal Waves in a Deep Stratified Fluid
SIAM Journal on Applied Mathematics, 1994Summary: Stability of the nonlinear periodic solutions of the Benjamin-Ono equation with respect to one-dimensional perturbations and taking into account transverse modulations is analytically studied. The full set of eigenfrequencies and of small perturbations is found in the one- dimensional case.

Nonlinear internal waves on the California continental shelf
Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, 1985A series of intermittent interval wave events were observed at a single site in 133 m of water on the northern California continental shelf during the Coastal Ocean Dynamics Experiment 1981. Simultaneous time‐series observations of temperature and conductivity were used to infer isotherm and isopycnal depths which were combined with current ...

A new mechanism of the nonlinear generation of internal waves
Doklady Physics, 2002The exact solution to the linearized problem of generating disturbances by a two-dimensional obstacle performing a periodic motion in a viscous continuously stratified liquid describes thin boundary layers [1] as well as progressive waves and makes it possible to estimate the errors of the extensively used method of sources [2].

Nonlinear Aspects of Internal Waves in the Atmosphere
2009Abstract : Internal waves in the atmosphere are responsible for a significant percentage of atmospheric turbulence, particularly at the tropopause. This turbulence can interfere with Air Force operations, and is in need of improved prediction methods. The research has considered a sequence of idealized phenomena aimed at this ultimate goal. The results

Energy Budget of Nonlinear Internal Waves Near Dongsha
2008Abstract : Our long-term scientific goal is to understand the mechanisms by which mixing occurs in the ocean and thereby help develop improved parameterizations of mixing for ocean models. Mixing within the stratified ocean is our particular focus as the complex interplay of internal waves from a variety of sources and turbulence makes this a current ...
