The flow of a stratified fluid over topography is considered in the long-wavelength weakly nonlinear limit for the case when the flow is near resonance; that is, the basic flow speed is close to a linear long-wave phase speed for one of the long-wave modes. It is shown that the amplitude of this mode is governed by a forced Korteweg-de Vries equation. This equation is discussed both analytically and numerically for a variety of different cases, covering subcritical and supercritical flow, resonant or non-resonant, and for localized forcing that has either the same, or opposite, polarity to the solitary waves that would exist in the absence of forcing. In many cases a significant upstream disturbance is generated which consists of a train of solitary waves. The usefulness of internal hydraulic theory in interpreting the results is also demonstrated.
