Figures were produced using GMT6 (Wessel et al., 2019) Although typically used to measure dynamic strain from seismic and acoustic waves, Rayleigh-based distributed acoustic sensing (DAS) is also sensitive to temperature, offering longer range and higher sensitivity to small temperature perturbations than conventional Raman-based distributed temperature sensing. Here, we demonstrate that ocean-bottom DAS can be employed to study internal wave and tide dynamics in the bottom boundary layer, a region of enhanced ocean mixing but scarce observations. First, we show temperature transients up to about 4 K from a power cable in the Strait of Gibraltar south of Spain, associated with passing trains of internal solitary waves in water depth <200 m. Second, we show the propagation of thermal fronts associated with the nonlinear internal tide on the near-critical slope of the island of Gran Canaria, off the coast of West Africa, with perturbations up to about 2 K at 1-km depth and 0.2 K at 2.5-km depth. With spatial averaging, we also recover a signal proportional to the barotropic tidal pressure, including the lunar fortnightly variation. In addition to applications in observational physical oceanography, our results suggest that contemporary chirped-pulse DAS possesses sufficient long-period sensitivity for seafloor geodesy and tsunami monitoring if ocean temperature variations can be separated.
