RISBuoyancy- and Wind-Driven Circulation in an Extended Model of Potential Vorticity Homogenization
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: An analytical model is proposed on the middepth water circulation between the surface wind-driven circulation and the deep buoyancy-driven circulation. The model consists of three and a half layers, with the second and ...
Fixed-Point Observation of Mixed Layer Evolution in the Seasonally Ice-Free Chukchi Sea: Turbulent Mixing due to Gale Winds and Internal Gravity Waves
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: fixed-point observation using the R/V Mirai was conducted in the ice-free northern Chukchi Sea of the Arctic Ocean during September of 2013. During the program the authors performed repeated microstructure measurements to ...
Enhanced Diapycnal Mixing due to Near-Inertial Internal Waves Propagating through an Anticyclonic Eddy in the Ice-Free Chukchi Plateau
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he Arctic Ocean is known to be quiescent in terms of turbulent kinetic energy (TKE) associated with internal waves. To investigate the current state of TKE in the seasonally ice-free Chukchi Plateau, Arctic Ocean, this ...
