Generation and Propagation of Internal Solitary Waves in Background Shear Currents: Incorporating the Free‐Surface Effect
Internal solitary waves (ISWs) are ubiquitous in the ocean and play an important role in ocean mixing and energy transport. While the generation and evolution of ISWs have been extensively studied using two‐layer models, the combined effects of a free surface, multilayer stratification, and background shear currents...
