Short summary
Internal tides are perturbations of the density and current in the ocean that are generated when the astronomical flows over the irregular bottom topography, and propagate in the stratified ocean under the form of waves. They then interact with other types of currents, which disturb their properties – phase and amplitude – and results in a loss of regularity, called incoherence. This paper investigates this mechanism using numerical simulations.
