Shoaling internal solitary waves
[1] The evolution and breaking of internal solitary waves in a shallow upper layer as they approach a constant bottom slope is examined through laboratory experiments. The waves are launched in a two-layer fluid through the standard lock-release method. In most experiments, the wave amplitude is significantly larger than the depth of the shallow upper layer so that they are not well described b...
متن کاملDepth inversion in shallow water based on nonlinear properties of shoaling periodic waves
Ž . Two depth inÕersion algorithms DIA applicable to coastal waters are developed, calibrated, and validated based on results of computations of periodic waves shoaling over mild slopes, in a Ž . two-dimensional numerical waÕe tank based on fully nonlinear potential flow FNPF theory. In actual field situations, these algorithms would be used to predict the cross-shore depth variation h based on...

Two depth inversion algorithms applicable to coastal waters are developed, calibrated, and validated based on results of computations of periodic waves shoaling over mild slopes, in a two-dimensional numerical wave tank based on fully nonlinear potential flow theory. In actual field situations, these algorithms would be used to predict the cross-shore depth variation h based on sets of values o...
متن کاملObservations of Polarity Reversal in Shoaling Nonlinear Internal Waves
Observations off the New Jersey coast document the shoaling of three groups of nonlinear internal waves of depression over 35 km across the shelf. Each wave group experienced changing background conditions along its shoreward transit. Despite different wave environments, a clear pattern emerges. Nearly symmetric waves propagating into shallow water develop an asymmetric shape; in the wave refer...
متن کاملShoaling of nonlinear internal waves in Massachusetts Bay
[1] The shoaling of the nonlinear internal tide in Massachusetts Bay is studied with a fully nonlinear and nonhydrostatic model. The results are compared with current and temperature observations obtained during the August 1998 Massachusetts Bay Internal Wave Experiment and observations from a shorter experiment which took place in September 2001. The model shows how the approaching nonlinear u...
