Internal tides in the Bay of Biscay: conversion rates and seasonal effects

T Gerkema, FPA Lam, LRM Maas - Deep Sea Research Part II: Topical …, 2004 - Elsevier
Internal tides in the Bay of Biscay are studied using a numerical linear hydrostatic internal-
tide generation model, in which along-slope uniformity is assumed. The focus is on the
seasonal changes in the generation and dynamics. The results are compared with
observations made near the shelf-break in early summer. They were obtained using a towed
Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler (ADCP) on repeated tracks in the Bay of Biscay; this
provides a synoptic view in a plane spanned by the vertical and the cross-slope direction. In …
