Besides this so-called barotropic effect, the tidal force also drives internal waves in a daily rhythm. Thus, the internal wave spectrum is often dominated by a single component with perhaps 10 km from crest to crest. This ‘‘internal tide’’ tends to propagate toward shore and has its greatest height near the shelfbreak.engconference objecthttp://dx.doi.org/10.1121/1.419305
