Internal solitary waves (ISWs) are the nonlinear large amplitude waves existing in the
oceanic pycnocline. They are very active in the northern South China Sea (SCS). With more …

The current research into internal solitary waves (ISWs) and the related dynamic processes
in the northern South China Sea (SCS) are reviewed in this paper. This unique wave …

With characteristics of large amplitude and strong current, internal solitary wave (ISW) is a
major hazard to marine engineering and submarine navigation; it also has significant …

This study examines water property distributions in the deep South China Sea and adjoining
Pacific Ocean using all available hydrographic data. Our analysis reveals that below about …

Ocean circulation strongly influences how internal tides radiate and break and stimulates the
spatial inhomogeneity and temporal variation of internal tidal mixing. Qualitative and …

Abstract The M2, K1, and O1 internal tides originating in the Luzon Strait are investigated
using the sea surface height measurements by multiple satellites ERS‐2, Envisat …

Speed and Evolution of Nonlinear Internal Waves Transiting the South China Sea in: Journal of
Physical Oceanography Volume 40 Issue 6 (2010) Jump to Content Jump to Main Navigation …

Surface signatures associated with non‐linear internal waves are often seen in satellite
images of the western South China Sea (SCS) slope and shelf. Observation in the deep sea …

We present the results of three‐dimensional, nonhydrostatic simulations of internal tides and
waves in the South China Sea (SCS) using the SUNTANS model. Model results accurately …

Five large-amplitude internal solitary waves (ISWs) propagating westward on the upper
continental slope in the northern South China Sea were observed in May–June 2011 with …
