Comparison with a1= 0 130 km a1 = 0 a1 0 130 km 323 km 323 km Baltic sea Red zone is a1 0 Focusing case We put w = 0.01 s-1 A0 = 6 m No linear amplification Q ~ 1 A0 = 8 m Estimations of instability length South China Sea Lins~ 0.6 km Lins~ 60 km Start point Last point Baltic Sea Central point Last point Lins~ 5 km Lins~ 600 km Conclusion: Modulational instability is possible for Long Sea Internal Waves on “shallow” water. Modulational instability may take place when the background stratification leads to the positive cubic nonlinear term. Modulational instability of large-amplitude wave packets results in rogue wave formations Tatiana Talipova in collaboration with Efim Pelinovsky, Oxana Kurkina, Roger Grimshaw, Anna Sergeeva, Kevin Lamb Institute of Applied Physics, Nizhny Novgorod, Russia The modulational instability of long internal waves Internal waves in time-series in the South China Sea (Duda et al., 2004) The horizontal ADCP velocities (Lee et al, 2006) Observations of Internal Waves of Huge Amplitudes Alfred Osborn “Nonlinear Ocean Waves the Inverse Scattering Transform”, 2010 Theory for long waves of moderate amplitudes Full Integrable Model Reference system One mode (mainly the first) Gardner equation Coefficients are the functions of the ocean stratification Cauchy Problem - Method of Inverse Scattering First Step: t = 0 spectrum Discrete spectrum – solitons (real roots, breathers (imaginary roots) Continuous spectrum – wave trains Direct Spectral Problem Cauchy Problem Limited amplitude alim = -a/a1 a1 0 a1 0 sign of a1 Gardner’s Solitons Two branches of solitons of both polarities, algebraic soliton alim = -2 a/a1 cubic, a1 quadratic α Positive Solitons Negative Solitons Negative algebraic soliton Positive algebraic soliton Sign of the cubic term is principal!
