Modal decomposition of internal tides -- thorough comparison between theory, experiment and simulaiton
Submitted by mrflynn on Mon, 05/19/2008 - 16:13Further to the comparisons previously posted, this figure shows a more complete comparison between T/E/S for the structure of the internal modes (n=1, 2, 3) generated by a 2D Gaussian ridge in a uniformly stratified ambient. The top row shows the mode strength magnitudes whereas the bottom row shows the corresponding phases. Theoretical curves are generated by adapting the theory of Petrelis et al. (JPO 2006). Experimental data are denoted by the triangles whereas simulation results are given by the open circles.
