Nonlinear disintegration of the internal tide

The disintegration of a first-mode internal tide into shorter solitary-like waves is considered. Because observations frequently show both tides and waves with amplitudes beyond the restrictions of weakly nonlinear theory, the evolution is studied using a fully-nonlinear, weakly nonhydrostatic two-l...
