Internal waves are important physical phenomena on the continental shelf/slope. They are
often very energetic, and their breaking provides an important dissipation and mixing …

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 …

Two-dimensional, nonlinear and nonhydrostatic field-scale numerical simulations are used
to examine the resuspension, dispersal and transport of mud-like sediment caused by the …

Exchange of material across the nearshore region, extending from the shoreline to a few
kilometers offshore, determines the concentrations of pathogens and nutrients near the …

Internal solitary waves (ISWs) can cause strong seafloor sediment resuspension and induce
nepheloid layers in both shallow and deepwater environments. However, the roles of ISWs …

Internal solitary waves (ISWs) can cause strong vertical and horizontal currents and
turbulent mixing in the ocean. These processes affect sediment and pollutant transport …

Marine nepheloid layer is widely distributed in the oceans and marginal seas. The
concentration of suspended particles in the nepheloid layer is significantly higher than that …

Moored observations of temperature and current were collected on the inner continental
shelf off Point Sal, California, between 9 June and 8 August 2015. The measurements …

Observations of the run-up of internal bores in a shallow bay were made with a tow-yo
instrument and mooring arrays with high spatial and temporal resolution. Shoreward …

The high-resolution mooring observations reported here reveal a cascade process from
internal solitary waves (ISWs) to turbulent mixing via high-frequency internal waves near the …
