Generation, Propagation, and Dissipation of Internal Waves in Continental Shelf Regimes

Abstract

The long-term goal is to understand the dynamics of nonlinear internal waves in littoral regimes, including the processes of generation, propagation, interaction, and dissipation; to formulate analytical models of these processes that have useful predictive skill; and to transition the models to Navy operational interests.
