An experimental study is reported of the near-critical reflection of internal
gravity waves over sloping topography in a stratified fluid. An overturning
instability close to the slope and triggering the boundary-mixing process is
observed and characterized. These observations are found in good agreement with
a recent nonlinear theory.
