Determining Mixing Rates from Concurrent Temperature and Velocity Measurements
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractOcean mixing has historically been estimated using Osborn?s model by measuring the rate of dissipation of turbulent kinetic energy ? and the background density stratification N while assuming a value of the flux ...
Observations of Diurnal Coastal-Trapped Waves with a Thermocline-Intensified Velocity Field
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractUsing 18 days of field observations, we investigate the diurnal (D1) frequency wave dynamics on the Tasmanian eastern continental shelf. At this latitude, the D1 frequency is subinertial and separable from the ...
