Session Description | Internal waves are abundant in world oceans. For instance, the Australian North West shelf and the South China Sea are uniquely suited for the development of baroclinic tides and internal solitons. With recent technological advancements in in-situ monitoring systems, remote sensing as well as newly built supercomputers, substantial progress on internal waves research, especially those of large amplitude internal solitaries has been made. This session calls for papers with recent findings concerning newly developed numerical models on internal waves as well as the remote sensing/in-situ measured evidences of solitary waves, for example, multi-mode internal waves from moorings or SAR images. Progress on physical-based models of internal waves experiment from laboratory work is also welcome. The main objective of this session is to promote discussions and collaborations of scientists worldwide for enhanced and integrated internal waves research. |
