Beschreibungen
This book contains a comprehensive study of the internal ocean waves, which play a very important role in ocean physics providing mechanisms for ocean water mixing and circulation, as well as the transportation of gases, nutrients, and a very large number of marine organisms in the ocean body.<br>In contrast to surface waves, the literature on internal waves is not so numerous, mainly due to the difficulties in experimental data collection and in the mathematical description of internal wave propagation. <br>In this book, the basic mathematical principles, a physical description of the observed phenomena, and practical theoretical methods of determination of wave parameters as well as the original method of observation using moving sensors are presented. Special attention is paid to internal wave propagation over changing bottom topographies in shallow seas such as the Baltic Sea.<br>The book is supplemented with an extended list of relevant and extended bibliographies, a subject index, and an author index.
Introducing Internal Waves.- Internal Waves in Two-layer Sea.-Waves in a Continuously Stratified Sea of Constant Water Depth.- Waves in a Continuously Stratified Sea of Varying Depth.-Generation of Internal Waves.- Spectral Properties of Internal Waves.- Internal Waves in the Baltic Sea.
