潮成内波在物理海洋和相关学科中的影响

潮成海洋内波作为物理海洋学中的一个研究内容,虽然对海洋中的能量分配过程起着相当重要的作用,但其作用和影响却不仅仅限于此范畴之内。在许多相关学科的研究中,如水声学、地学(物质输运、地形地貌、深水沉积、地壳液体流动)、海洋工程(海洋资源的勘探、开发和保护等)、海洋生态环境,海水养殖、渔业捕捞,航道淤积以及观测仪器、卫星海洋学等,都存在潮成内波的作用。文章分析了线性或弱非线性潮成内波(常称为内潮波)和强非线性潮成内波(常称为内孤立波)可能的作用方式,对其在物理海洋学及各相关学科中的作用作了简单介绍。

THE INFLUENCES OF INTERNAL TIDES IN PHYSICAL OCEANOGRAPHY AND IN RELATED DISCIPLINES

Internal waves generated from the interaction between tides and topography, being a part of physical oceanography, play an important role in ocean energy distribution, but their influences or actions are not limited to the subject only. The roles of internal waves is studied in many related disciplines such as marine acoustics, geosciences (matter conveyance, topography and geomorphology, Sedimentology, liquid flow in the earth etc.), ocean engineering, marine ecological environments, marine cultivation, fishery catch, channel siltation, observation instruments and satellite oceanology. In what way can internal tides and solitons make their influences in these disciplines and what influences are, if they have, have been discussed in this paper.
