Through a combination of theoretical study and numerical experiments, we show that solitons in the odd vertical modes can fission. However, because of the corrections, the fission conditions are different from those of Djordjevic & Redekopp. The even modes cannot fission unless the initial internal solitons propagate from shallow sea to deep sea.

文摘To further study the nal solitons on the continental fission laws of initial intershelf/slope, we rederive and correct the 2D KdV equation of Djordjevic & Redekopp for exponentially stratified fluid (or ocean) and with twodimensional topography.
