The effect of transverse canyons on coastal trapped waves : a modeling study /

The presence of a transverse canyon on the continental shelf/slope scatters the energy of encroaching coastal trapped waves (CTWs) and perturbs the flow in the area of the canyon. Analytical work has shown that forward scattering is preferentially into nearby allowable higher modes and backward sca...
