Abstract: | Within the framework of the linear theory of long waves taking into account the action of the Coriolis force, we solve the
problem of generation of internal waves by a barotropic tide impinging on a bottom irregularity of the sea-ridge type. The
cross section of the ridge is assumed to be rectangular and the stratification of the ocean is regarded as stepwise with two
thermoclines (three-layer model). We study the dependences of the characteristics of generated waves on the parameters of
stratification and the period of the impinging barotropic tide.
