Observation of a Large Lee Wave in the Drake Passage
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ee waves are thought to play a prominent role in Southern Ocean dynamics, facilitating a transfer of energy from the jets of the Antarctic Circumpolar Current to microscale, turbulent motions important in water mass ...
Observed Eddy–Internal Wave Interactions in the Southern Ocean
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The physical mechanisms that remove energy from the Southern Ocean’s vigorous mesoscale eddy field are not well understood. One proposed mechanism is direct energy transfer to the internal wave field in the ocean interior, ...
