Vertically varying Eulerian mean currents induced by internal coastal Kelvin waves
The lost momentum in spatially damped internal Kelvin waves reappears as Eulerian mean currents through the action of the nonlinear wave-wave interaction terms. A novel expression is derived for the steady balance between the frictional force on the coastally trapped horizontal Eulerian mean flow, a...
