Sediment resuspension and transport by internal solitary waves

L Boegman, M Stastna - Annual review of fluid mechanics, 2019 - annualreviews.org
Large-amplitude internal waves induce currents and turbulence in the bottom boundary
layer (BBL) and are thus a key driver of sediment movement on the continental margins …

The fate and impact of internal waves in nearshore ecosystems

CB Woodson - Annual review of marine science, 2018 - annualreviews.org
Internal waves are widespread features of global oceans that play critical roles in mixing and
thermohaline circulation. Similarly to surface waves, internal waves can travel long …
