Figure 14. PHOENICS predicted effect of large amplitude internal waves of dispersingneutrally buoyant material (colour coded as concentration) initially situated at differentdepths. The internal wave is input to the simulation from density and current measurementsmade off the Malin Shelf (north west coast of Scotland). The solid dark lines shown are thewave isopycnals. The solid white lines are contours of Richardson number, indicatingpotential areas of turbulence. Time of simulation progresses from top left to top right tobottom left to bottom right.20
