Abstract: esoscale eddies are ubiquitous in the World Ocean and dominate the energy content on subinertial time scales. Recent theoretical and numerical studies suggest a connection between mesoscale eddies and diapycnal mixing in ...

Abstract: irect measurements of oceanic turbulent parameters were taken upstream of and across Drake Passage, in the region of the Subantarctic and Polar Fronts. Values of turbulent kinetic energy dissipation rate ε estimated by ...

Abstract: Internal wave?wave interaction theories and observations support a parameterization for the turbulent dissipation rate ε and eddy diffusivity K that depends on internal wave shear ?Vz2? and strain ??z2? variances. Its ...
