Internal tide

英语例句库

At present the research of the deep water tractive current deposition mainly focus on contourite and internal tide, internal wave deposition.

目前深水牵引流沉积的研究主要集中于等深流沉积和内潮汐、内波沉积。

地心游记-The journey to the heart of the Earth

" Because this liquid mass would be subject, like the ocean, to the lunar attraction, and therefore twice every day there would be internal tides, which, upheaving the terrestrial crust, would cause periodical earthquakes! "

“因为这种液态物质会像海洋一样​​受到月球引力的影响,因此每天都会出现两次内潮汐,内潮汐会导致地壳隆起,从而引发周期性地震!”

Internal tide

Figure 1: Water parcels in the whole water column move together with the surface tide (top), while shallow and deep waters move in opposite directions in an internal tide (bottom). The surface displacement and interface displacement are the same for a surface wave (top), while for an internal wave the surface displacements are very small, while the interface displacements are large (bottom). This figure is a modified version of one appearing in Gill (1982).

Figure 2: The internal tide sea surface elevation that is in phase with the surface tide (i.e., crests occur in a certain spot at a certain time that are both the same relative to the surface tide) can be detected by satellite (top).  (The satellite track is repeated about every 10 days and so M2 tidal signals are shifted to longer periods due to aliasing.)  The longest internal tide wavelengths are about 150 km near Hawaii and the next longest waves are about 75 km long.  The surface displacements due to the internal tide are plotted as wiggly red lines with amplitudes plotted perpendicular to the satellite groundtracks (black lines).  Figure is adapted from Johnston et al. (2003).
Figure 3: The internal tide produces large vertical differences in temperature at the research pier at the Scripps Institution of Oceanography.  The black line shows the surface tide elevation relative to mean lower low water (MLLW).

Internal tides are generated as the surface tides move stratified water up and down sloping topography, which produces a wave in the ocean interior. So internal tides are internal waves at a tidal frequency. The other major source of internal waves is the wind which produces internal waves near the inertial frequency. When a small water parcel is displaced from its equilibrium position, it will return either downwards due to gravity or upwards due to buoyancy. The water parcel will overshoot its original equilibrium position and this disturbance will set off an internal gravity wave. Munk (1981) notes, "Gravity waves in the ocean's interior are as common as waves at the sea surface-perhaps even more so, for no one has ever reported an interior calm."
