internal waves

Internal tides

The horizontal barocilinic velocity of an internal tide corresponding to the \(M_2\) tidal constituent with constant stratification \(N=0.0015\) (1/s), Coriolis frequency \(f = 0.0001\) (1/s). The amplitude of the horizontal barotropic current at infinity is \(U_0 = 0.04\) (m/s). The depth at infinity is \(3000\) m and the Gaussian ridge has a criticality \(0.8\) and relative height \(0.5\).
