Based on the analyses of the vertical modes of the internal wave, the characteristics of the wave-induced current during the propagation of the internal soliton are studied. A regularized long wave (RLW) equation numerical model considering effects of multi-fac-tors is employed, and the observed environmental parame-ters are used as the initial conditions to simulate the propa-gation and evolution of the internal soliton in the continental shelf of the northern SCS.展开更多
