Short summary
Temporal variability of the semidiurnal internal tide around New Caledonia is investigated using regional modeling. An important contribution to temporal variability not linked to the spring–neap tide cycle is due to the presence of mesoscale eddies both at the generation sites and in the propagation direction. The incoherent tide has a widespread signature in sea surface height (SSH), challenging the SSH observability of mesoscale to submesoscale dynamics.
