Sediment resuspension due to internal solitary waves of elevation in the Messina Strait (Mediterranean Sea)

Abstract By combining real-field observations and theoretical predictions, we describe role and relationships among north-propagating internal solitary waves (ISWs) generated by tidal currents in the Messina Strait (Mediterranean Sea), buoyancy deformation, sediment resuspension, and mixing effects....
