Geophysical internal equatorial waves of extreme form

Abstract

The existence of internal geophysical waves of extreme form is confirmed and an explicit solution presented. The flow is confined to a layer lying above an eastward current while the mean horizontal flow of the solutions is westward, thus incorporating flow reversal in the fluid.
