Ground‐Truthed Fiber‐Optic Sensing Reveals Internal Tide Bores Over Madeira's Steep Slope
Abstract We demonstrate the combined utility of distributed acoustic sensing (DAS) and repeat conductivity‐temperature‐depth (CTD) profiling for observing internal tide dynamics over a sloping seafloor. While DAS has been widely proposed as a method to infer ocean temperature variability from seafloor cables, quantitative in situ validation has been ...

Internal Wave Observations Off Saba Bank
The deep sloping sides of Saba Bank, the largest submarine atoll in the Atlantic Ocean, show quite different internal wave characteristics. To measure these characteristics, two 350 m long arrays consisting of primary a high-resolution temperature T ...

AbstractThis paper investigates the role of semidiurnal tides in the Hanna Shoal region on the northeastern Chukchi Sea shelf to evaluate their impact on the regional shelf dynamics. The study is based on 2‐year long velocity time series from five oceanographic moorings. These records indicate the dominance of wind‐generated near‐inertial energy during

Fifty years of micro‐erosion metre monitoring at Kaikōura show that the 2016 earthquake more than doubled shore platform erosion rates, transforming intertidal shore platforms into rapidly degrading supratidal marine terraces and reorganising the process and lithological controls that govern rock coast evolution.

Effects of internal tides on GNSS-A seafloor crustal deformation observation
Internal tides are crucial in ocean dynamics and are a source of error in marine acoustic measurements. In Global Navigation Satellite System-Acoustic combination technique (GNSS-A) seafloor crustal deformation observations, which contribute to ...

Characterizing the nonlinear internal wave climate in the northeastern South China Sea [PDF]
Four oceanographic moorings were deployed in the South China Sea from April 2005 to June 2006 along a transect extending from the Batanes Province, Philippines in the Luzon Strait to just north of Dong-Sha Island on the Chinese continental slope.

Abstract Using field observations from the MEGAPEX and Coastal Genesis 2.0 (CG2‐DVT2) campaigns along the Dutch coast, along with laboratory data from the DUNE3 experiment, we examine how ripple geometry responds to variations in orbital diameter, sediment grain size, and current forcing. Results show that ripple wavelength follows a weakly superlinear

Typhoons, fueled by warm sea surface waters, heighten concern as they increasingly interact with frequent Marine Heatwaves (MHWs) in a changing climate. Typhoon Hinnamnor (2022) weakened and re‐intensified as it approached the Korean Strait, interacting ...

Propagation of the Semidiurnal Internal Tide: Phase Velocity Versus Group Velocity [PDF]
AbstractThe superposition of two waves of slightly different wavelengths has long been used to illustrate the distinction between phase velocity and group velocity. The first‐mode M2 and S2 internal tides exemplify such a two‐wave model in the natural ocean.

Abstract Salt marshes are widespread along temperate coastlines globally. They provide myriad ecosystem services that support natural and human systems. Some salt marsh plants, like Spartina alterniflora, grow best in a window of elevation within the tidal range that results in a regular pattern of inundation and exposure that the plant is adapted to ...
