  1. The modulational instability of long internal waves Tatiana Talipova in collaboration with EfimPelinovsky, OxanaKurkina, Roger Grimshaw, Anna Sergeeva, Kevin Lamb Institute of Applied Physics, Nizhny Novgorod, Russia

  2. Observations of Internal Waves of Huge Amplitudes Alfred Osborn “Nonlinear Ocean Waves & the Inverse Scattering Transform”, 2010 Internal waves in time-series in the South China Sea (Duda et al., 2004) Thehorizontal ADCP velocities (Lee et al, 2006)

  3. Theory for long waves of moderate amplitudes Gardner equation • Full Integrable Model • Reference system • One mode (mainly the first) Coefficients are the functions of the ocean stratification

  4. Cauchy Problem - Method of Inverse Scattering

  5. Cauchy Problem First Step: t = 0 Direct Spectral Problem spectrum Discrete spectrum – solitons (real roots, breathers (imaginary roots) Continuous spectrum – wave trains

  6. sign ofa1 Gardner’s Solitons a1 < 0 Limited amplitude alim = -a/a1 a1 > 0 Two branches of solitons of bothpolarities, algebraic soliton alim=-2 a/a1

  7. cubic, a1 Positive and Negative Solitons Positive algebraic soliton Negative algebraic soliton quadratic α NegativeSolitons Positive Solitons Sign of the cubic term is principal!

  38. Conclusion: • Modulational instability is possible for Long Sea Internal Waves on “shallow” water. • Modulational instability may take place when the background stratification leads to the positive cubic nonlinear term. • Modulational instability of large-amplitude wave packets results in rogue wave formations
