Effects of a Geostrophic Current on the Propagation and Generation of Internal Tides
(University of Waterloo, 2021-08-30)Internal tides (ITs) are ubiquitous in a stratified ocean where they are generated in response to tidal flows incident upon bottom topography. Along-shelf currents or boundary currents are ocean currents commonly observed ... -
Numerical Simulations of Shoaling Internal Solitary Waves of Elevation
(University of Waterloo, 2015-04-13)We present high-resolution, two- and three-dimensional direct numerical simulations of laboratory-scale, fully nonlinear internal solitary waves of elevation shoaling onto and over a small-amplitude shelf. The three-dimensional, ...
