Observations of internal wave reflection off sloping bottoms
Abstract
Current and temperature spectra exhibit intensification and polarization near sloping bottoms over a band of frequencies centered at the local internal wave critical frequency. Examples are drawn from a variety of island, seamount, and continental slope observations. Waves propagating down from mid‐depth change energy density, wave number, and azimuth when they reflect off the bottom, providing a natural perturbation to the deep ocean interior internal wave spectrum. Deviations from linear theory are interpreted as evidence for dissipation through subsequent shear instability and/or nonlinear interaction. Topographic features appear likely to be energy sinks for internal wave energy.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
