Abstract:OBJECTIVES AND IMPORTANCENonlinear Internal Waves are pervasive globally, particularly in coastal waters. The currents and displacements associated with internal waves influence acoustic propagation and underwater navigation, as well as ocean transport and mixing. Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) imagery can reveal the surface manifestations of internal waves (IWs) in satellite imagery and so is routinely used to locate and characterize these features. Though some of the mechanisms that link the SAR signatures, … Show more
