Abstract: In this short communication, we present the multi-symplectic structure for the two-layer Serre–Green–Naghdi equations describing the evolution of large amplitude internal gravity water waves when both layers are shallow. We consider only a two-layer stratification with rigid bottom and lid for simplicity, generalisations to several layers being conceivable. This multi-symplectic formulation allows the application of various multi-symplectic integrators (such as Euler or Preissman box schemes) that preserve exactly the multi-symplecticity at the discrete level.
