Internal waves are gravity waves that oscillate within a fluid medium, rather than on its surface. To exist, the fluid must be stratified: the density...

Internal wave breaking is a process during which internal gravity waves attain a large amplitude compared to their length scale, become nonlinearly unstable...

A seiche (/seɪʃ/ SAYSH) is a standing wave in an enclosed or partially enclosed body of water. Seiches and seiche-related phenomena have been observed...

Internal wave, a wave within a fluid medium Shock wave, in aerodynamics Sound wave, a wave of sound through a medium such as air or water Tidal wave,...

can be ascribed to breaking of internal waves (Lee waves). When a stratified fluid reaches an internal obstacle, a wave is created that can eventually...

different densities) are called internal waves. Wind-generated waves on the water surface are examples of gravity waves, as are tsunamis, ocean tides,...

A wave cloud is a cloud form created by atmospheric internal waves. The atmospheric internal waves that form wave clouds are created as stable air flows...

In physics, total internal reflection (TIR) is the phenomenon in which waves arriving at the interface (boundary) from one medium to another (e.g., from...

attempting passage and 10 more had to break off their run due to damage. Internal waves (waves at the density boundary layer) are often produced by the Strait...

oscillates and creates internal waves. While internal waves generally have a lower frequency than surface waves, they often form as a single wave that breaks into...

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...

without much mixing. The phenomenon is a result of energy producing internal waves that have an effect on the vessel. The effect can also be found at density...

the interface. An observed phenomena accompanying total internal reflection is the evanescent wave, which spatially extends away perpendicularly from the...

Look up tidal wave in Wiktionary, the free dictionary. Tidal wave may refer to: A tidal bore, which is a large movement of water formed by the funnelling...

geophysics, the refraction or reflection of seismic waves is used for research into Earth's internal structure. Scientists sometimes generate and measure...

Rogue waves (also known as freak waves or killer waves) are large and unpredictable surface waves that can be extremely dangerous to ships and isolated...

field, or evanescent wave, is an oscillating electric and/or magnetic field that does not propagate as an electromagnetic wave but whose energy is spatially...

The wave base, in physical oceanography, is the maximum depth at which a water wave's passage causes significant water motion. At water depths deeper...
