Investigation of the electromagnetic fields induced by sea wave motion

This paper discusses a theoretical model of the electromagnetic field induced by internal waves of baric origin. Comparison of thein situ data on the differences between the horizontal electrical field potentials conditioned by internal waves in some Black Sea and tropical Atlantic areas and of the results of calculations of the model electrical field's intensity in those areas shows their good agreement. The dependences of the electromagnetic field component amplitudes on the internal waves parameters and sea-bed rock conductivity are considered. Translated by Vladimir A. Puchkin.
