Abstract

The problem of internal wave propagation in the coastal zone is considered. The solutions describing the evolution of nonlinear waves above the shelf are constructed on the basis of the mathematical three-layer shallow water model. An analysis of the solutions obtained makes it possible to establish the basic laws of transformation of solitary waves and nonlinear wave packets of large amplitude in the shelf zone of the sea. New possibilities of application of analytical and numerical solutions to interpretation of natural experiments are discussed.
