Nonlinear internal waves over New Jersey’s continental shelf
[1] Ship and mooring data collected off the coast of New Jersey are used to describe the nonlinear internal wave (NLIW) field and the background oceanographic conditions that formed the waveguide on the shelf. The subinertial, inertial, and tidal circulation are described in detail, and the background fluid state is characterized using the coefficients of the extendedKorteweg–deVries equation. ...
متن کاملMode 2 waves on the continental shelf: Ephemeral components of the nonlinear internal wavefield
[1] Shoreward propagating, mode 2 nonlinear waves appear sporadically in mooring records obtained off the coast of New Jersey in the summer of 2006. Individual mode 2 packets were tracked between two moorings separated by 1 km; however, packets could not be tracked between moorings separated by greater distances from one another (∼10 km). The inability to track individual packets large distance...
متن کاملDrilling Productivity on the Norwegian Continental Shelf
Recently, we have seen falling oil prices combined with sticky costs at a high level in the petroleum industry. This cause cost cuts and project postponements, thus challenging reserve replacement of oil companies and security of supply for consumers. Costs are particularly high for drilling. High rig rates are obviously important. In new contracts for high-spec semi rigs on the Norwegian Conti...
متن کاملGeneration and Propagation of Internal Solitary Waves on the Continental Shelf and Slope
There are two principal objectives. The first is to develop and refine amplitude evolution equations of the Korteweg-de Vries type to the point where they can be used as validated models for the propagation of internal solitary waves. The second is to undertake a major re-examination of the generation process, using a combination of theoretical and numerical analyses, and emphasising the distin...
متن کاملGeneration of Internal Tides and Internal Solitary Waves on the Continental Shelf
There are two principal objectives. The first is to continue the development of amplitude evolution equations of the Korteweg-de Vries type with a main focus on topographic effects, and on the associated effects of refraction and friction. The second is to undertake a major re-examination of the generation process, using a combination of theoretical and numerical analyses, and emphasising the d...
