Abstract

Internal solitary waves (ISWs) are increasingly regarded as an integral component of coastal oceans, especially with respect to their suspected role as transporting and mixing agents. In this resentation, we focus on the evolution of internal solitary wavetrains upon impact with shoaling bottoms. Field observations and numerical simulations are used to quantify ISWs characteristics, energetics and transport properties during the shoaling process.
