Nonlinear information analysis of ocean waves based on inverse scattering transform

A method of nonlinear information analysis of measured ocean waves based on inverse scattering transform(IST) is presented herein. Furthermore, a significant step to apply this method and the criteria that must be satisfied is also shown. Using this method can help us study nonlinear properties of ocean waves, including surface and internal soliton danamics, rogue waves, coustic waves and vortex dynamics.
