Generation, propagation and dissipation of second mode internal solitary waves

The behaviour of large amplitude second mode internal solitary waves has been investigated. Waves were generated in the laboratory by a variety of methods and were observed using dye and particle visualisation techniques. Observations of wave generation, propagation and dissipation were used to deve...
