| Zusammenfassung |
| In coastal seas and straits, the interaction of barotropic tidal currents
with the continental shelf, seamounts or sills is often observed to generate
large-amplitude, horizontally propagating internal solitary waves. Typically
these waves occur in regions of variable bottom topography, with the
consequence that they are often modeled by nonlinear evolution equations of
the Korteweg-de Vries type with variable coefficients. We shall review how
these models are used to describe the propagation, deformation and
disintegration of internal solitary waves as they propagate over the
continental shelf and slope. |
