Effect of oceanic internal solitary wave amplitude, the relative distance of the SFT to the pycnocline, cross-sectional geometry of the SFT, and the density ratio of the two fluid layers are analyzed. At a pote
The temporal variability of internal solitary waves (ISWs) in the northern South China Sea (SCS) is examined from hourly to interannual timescales based on nearly four-year-long measurements from the SCS Mooring Array between August 2010 and June 2014. On an hourly timescale, large ISWs tend...

Internal solitary waves (ISWs) are frequently observed in the area between Dongsha Island (DI) and Taiwan Island. However, there have been few in-situ observations southwest of DI. To improve our knowledge of ISWs in this area, we observed the ISWs over the continental shelf (115.4°E, ...
Internal solitary waves can generate intense bottom currents and turbulent mixing over continental slopes, influencing the redistribution of sediments and
We propose that internal solitary waves (ISWs) induced by tides can produce an effective, unidirectional boundary “current” that forms asymmetric sand waves. We test this idea by examining a sand-wave field off the Messina Strait, where we hypothesize that ISWs formed at the interface between...

Mooring observations have revealed that the daily reappeared time (DRt) of internal solitary waves (ISWs) in the northern South China Sea (SCS) manifests systematic shifts. This study aims to reveal the dynamic mechanisms behind this phenomenon using the theory of modulation of shear flow to the...
Internal solitary waves (ISWs) can cause strong vertical and horizontal currents and turbulent mixing in the ocean. These processes affect sediment and pollutant transport, acoustic transmissions and man-made structures in the shallow and deep oceans. Previous studies of the role of ISWs in suspendi...
Considered herein is the Ostrovsky equation which is widely used to describe the effect of rotation on the surface and internal solitary waves in shallow water or the capillary waves in a plasma. It is shown that the solitary-wave solutions are orbitally stable for certain wave speeds.关键词: ...
