Journal ArticleDOI
Nonlinear interactions among internal gravity waves
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a review of the nonlinear interaction calculations for the internal gravity wave field in the deep ocean and present a numerical approach to handle both arbitrarily strong interactions and the interaction with the vortical mode of motion.
Journal ArticleDOI
Large-Amplitude Internal Solitary Waves Observed in the Northern South China Sea: Properties and Energetics
TL;DR: In this article, the authors observed five large-amplitude internal solitary waves (ISWs) propagating westward on the upper continental slope in the northern South China Sea were observed in May-June 2011 with nearly full-depth measurements of velocity, temperature, salinity, and density.

TL;DR: In this paper, a large-amplitude (100-200 m) nonlinear internal wave (NLIW) was observed on the continental slope in the northern South China Sea nearly diurnally during the spring tide.
Journal ArticleDOI
Corrections to Foldy’s effective medium theory for propagation in bubble clouds and other collections of very small scatterers
TL;DR: In this paper, a correction to foldy's effective medium theory of wave propagation through a random collection of a large number of point scatterers is presented. But the correction is limited to the case when Foldy's term is not small and truncation after Ye and Ding's term overestimates the correction.
Journal ArticleDOI
High-Frequency Internal Waves on the Oregon Continental Shelf
TL;DR: The average spectrum of Wentzel-Kramers-Brillouin (WKB)-scaled vertical kinetic energy has the level predicted by the Garrett-Munk model (GM79), plus a narrow M2 tidal peak and a broad high-frequency peak extending from about 0.1N to N and rising a decade above GM79 as discussed by the authors.
