7. Interaction of Surface Waves With Regions of Near-surface Convection

Despite the fact that the study of the dynamics of short waves, the length of which is substantially less than the thickness of the fluid layer on the surface of which they are the subject of numerous theoretical, experimental, and observational, and synthesis works, some of the key problems of generation, distribution, and interaction of these waves with other types of flows, as well as processes of their disintegration remain. In recent years, interest in the in-depth study of the short-wave part of the sea wave spectrum has been stimulated by the search for physical mechanisms for generating signals and signs that indicate topography, internal waves, and other phenomena in the ocean column in free-surface optical and radar images [1].
