Colloque avec actes et comité de lecture. Internationale.International audienceThe interaction of tidal currents with sea-floor topography generates internal gravity waves, called internal tides. Their dissipation due to nonlinear wave breaking and concomitant three-dimensional turbulence could play an important role in mixing the abyssal ocean and hence in controlling the large-scale ocean circulation. As part of on-going work to understand the vertical distribution of wave breaking over sea-floor topography, we investigate the instability of internal tides in a simple linear model. For two-dimensional tides over one-dimensional topography, the formation of unstable regions is closely linked to singularities in the topography shape. For th...
