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 …

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 …

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 …

Profiles of current velocity, temperature, and salinity were obtained in the Internal Wave and
Mixing Experiment in the South China Sea (SCS), the Luzon Strait, and the North Pacific …

Abstract In the South China Sea (SCS), 14 nonlinear internal waves are detected as they
transit a synchronous array of 10 moorings spanning the waves' generation site at Luzon …

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 …

Very large subaqueous sand dunes were discovered on the upper continental slope of the
northern South China Sea. The dunes were observed along a single 40km long transect …

The interaction between an oceanic internal solitary wave (ISW) and a prototype submerged
floating tunnel (SFT) is numerically investigated. Effect of oceanic internal solitary wave …

The nonhydrostatic Regional Ocean Modeling System is applied to the nonlinear internal
waves, or solitons, that are generated at the Luzon ridge in the South China Sea. The Luzon …

A strong internal tide is generated in the Luzon Strait that radiates westward to impact the
continental shelf of the South China Sea. Mooring data in 1500-m depth on the continental …
