Tide predictions in shelf and coastal waters: Status and prospects
The challenges of supplying accurate tide corrections for satellite altimetry in shelf and near-
coastal environments are reviewed. Relative to the deep ocean, tides in shallow water are …

Spectral decomposition of internal gravity wave sea surface height in global models
Two global ocean models ranging in horizontal resolution from 1/12° to 1/48° are used to
study the space and time scales of sea surface height (SSH) signals associated with internal …
