Observations on the evolution of shoaling nonlinear internal waves in Massachusetts Bay using shipboard X-band radar

Creator:

Nelson, Brian G.

Abstract:

During four cruises in July and September of 2008 and 2009, the shipboard X-band radar was tuned to detect the modulated bands of surface roughness caused by converging and diverging currents associated with high-frequency nonlinear internal wave (NLIW) packets. The data collected was used to quantify the propagation direction (ϴp),...
