Summary

In the frame of an oceanographic research aimed at describing marine circulation in the Ligurian Sea, a case of resonance between pressure and internal waves fluctuations is described. More in detail, after a short presentation of measurements carried out, the spectral analysis techniques are presented and applied to the data collected. The results obtained can be interpreted as a resonant transfer between the pressure fluctuations and an internal seiche of the basin.

Zusammenfassung

Im Rahmen einer ozeanographischen Untersuchung der Zirkulation im Ligurischen Meer wird ein Fall von Resonanz zwischen Luftdruck- und internen Wellenschwankungen beschrieben. Nach einer kurzen Darstellung der durchgeführten Messungen werden im Detail die Techniken der Spektralanalyse dargelegt und auf die gesammelten Beobachtungsdaten angewendet. Die erhaltenen Ergebnisse können als Resonanzübertragung zwischen Luftdruckschwankungen und einer internen Seiche des Beckens erklärt werden.
