Short summary
This paper demonstrates the importance of viewing internal tides (internal waves at tidal frequencies) as the sum of many random waves because statistical principles introduce characteristics that do not exist for the sum of a few random waves. This view leads us to the existence of a universal probability distribution for internal tides, which can be used for scientific and engineering purposes in the future, as is the case of surface waves.
