Abstract: uzon Strait between Taiwan and the Philippines features two parallel north?south-oriented ridges. The barotropic tides that propagate over these ridges cause strong internal waves and dissipation. The energy dissipation ...

Abstract: parameterization is presented for turbulence dissipation due to internal tides generated at and impinging upon topography steep enough to be ?supercritical? with respect to the tide. The parameterization requires knowledge ...

Abstract: he Luzon Strait is the generation region for strong internal tides that radiate westward into the South China Sea and eastward into the western Pacific. Intrusions of the Kuroshio and strong mesoscale variability in the ...

Abstract: AbstractUpstream mean semidiurnal internal tidal energy flux has been found in the Gulf Stream in hydrodynamical model simulations of the Atlantic Ocean. A major source of the energy in the simulations is the south edge ...

Abstract: he three-dimensional (3D) double-ridge internal tide interference in the Luzon Strait in the South China Sea is examined by comparing 3D and two-dimensional (2D) realistic simulations. Both the 3D simulations and observations ...

Abstract: he effects of a parameterized linear internal wave drag on the semidiurnal barotropic and baroclinic energetics of a realistically forced, three-dimensional global ocean model are analyzed. Although the main purpose of the ...

Abstract: AbstractThe evidence for, baroclinic energetics of, and geographic distribution of parametric subharmonic instability (PSI) arising from both diurnal and semidiurnal tides in a global ocean general circulation model is ...

Abstract: cent advances in our understanding of internal-wave driven turbulent mixing in the ocean interior are summarized. New parameterizations for global climate ocean models, and their climate impacts, are introduced.
