‘supercritical’ regime Fr > 1, the generation of strong nonlinear internal lee waves
by tide is possible at any latitude, whereas there is no IW generation when Fr ≪ 1
in the region north of the critical latitude. Therefore, the waves shown in Figs. 4, 5,
and 6 can be interpreted as internal lee waves.
