Abstract

Internal waves were observed by measuring temperature variations of several subsurface layers at the innermost part of Suruga Bay from December 1968 to October 1971. Spectral energy densities of temperature fluctuations were computed from the records of the measurements. In the shorter period range from one minute to one hour, peaks of energy density were found occasionally in the range shorter than the minimum of VAisAlA periods computed from the vertical distribution of water density. It has been generally understood, however, that the periods of internal waves in a stable stratum should be within the range between the inertial and VAisAlA periods.
