What is the “near-inertial” band and why is it different from the rest of the internal wave spectrum?
C Garrett - Journal of Physical Oceanography, 2001 - journals.ametsoc.org
The “near-inertial” part of the internal wave continuum is dominant and also different from
the rest of the spectrum. A simple possible reason for the difference is that waves generated …
