  4. Creation of nonlinear density gradients for use in internal wave research

    Harris, Victoria SiânMassachusetts Institute of Technology2007

    A method was developed to create a nonlinear density gradient in a tank of water. Such gradients are useful for studying internal waves, an ocean phenomenon that plays an important role in climate and ocean circulation. The method was developed by expanding on the two-tank system currently used to …
