Experimental Soliton Waves.

Abstract

First, in Appendix I, the five different areas of research on water waves are briefly summarized. In two of these areas (evolution of long internal waves and evolution of envelope solitons) work was not completed; some results to date are described. In the remaining three areas, final manuscripts have been completed and are presented in Appendices II, III, and IV. In particular, Appendix II is a copy of a paper entitled 'Baroclinic Tsunami Generation' to appear in the Journal of Physical Oceanography, September 1980; Appendix III is a copy of a paper entitled 'Long Waves Generated by Complex Bottom Motions' to appear in Proceedings, 17th Conference on Coastal Engineering; and Appendix IV is a copy of lecture notes on small-scale ocean waves presented at the summer (1980) course 'Topics In Ocean Physics' held at the International School of Physics 'Enrico Fermi', Varenna, Italy.
