Abstract:Abstract. In this paper, a regional study of mode-2 internal
solitary waves (ISWs) at the Pacific coast of Central America is carried out using the seismic reflection method. The observed relationship between
the dimensionless propagation speed and the dimensionless amplitude (DA) of
the mode-2 ISW is analyzed. When DA < 1.18, the dimensionless
propagation speed seems to increase with increasing DA, divided into two parts with different growth rates. When
DA > 1.18, the dimensionless propagation speed in… Show more
