[1] Semidiurnal internal tides propagating toward and along the east coast of Korea are elucidated
 from the surface manifestation of non-linear internal wave (NLIW) packets in synthetic aperture
 radar (SAR) images taken on September 2, 1996. The SAR images reveal two pairs of NLIW
 packets, one on the northern side of the southwestern East (Japan) Sea and the other on the
 western side. The NLIW packets appear to be generated by the semidiurnal internal tide and
 influenced by a temperature front and bottom topography during their propagation. A  ...
