Abstract: Two interpretations of microstructure patches measured in the main thermocline of the North Pacific by Gregg (1980) are questioned. He concludes that the observed microstructure is not fossil-temperature turbulence and ...

Abstract: Measurements of small-scale fluctuations of temperature are used to estimate turbulent parameters such as viscous dissipation rate (?), dissipation rate of temperature variance (?), and turbulent diffusion coefficients of ...

Abstract: Turbulence and turbulent mixing in the ocean are strongly intermittent in amplitude, space and time. The degree of intermittency is measured by the ?intermittency factor? σ2, defined as either σ2ln?, the variance of the ...

Abstract: Measurements of turbulent wind velocity, humidity and temperature spectra for stable and unstable stratification in the atmospheric surface layer obtained during an experiment over the North Pacific Ocean are presented. ...
