Variations in ocean mixing from seconds to years
JN Moum - Annual Review of Marine Science, 2021 - annualreviews.org
Over the past several decades, there has developed a community-wide appreciation for the
importance of mixing at the smallest scales to geophysical fluid dynamics on all scales. This …

The role of seasonal circulation in the variability of dynamic parameters of internal solitary waves in the Sulu Sea
In-situ observations of the Sulu Sea internal solitary waves (ISWs) are too limited to reveal
their variability. In this study, based on verified model reanalysis data, we study the …

Turbulence asymmetries in bottom boundary layer velocity pulses associated with onshore-propagating nonlinear internal waves
The inner shelf is a region inshore of that part of the shelf that roughly obeys Ekman
dynamics and offshore of the surf zone. Importantly, this is where surface and bottom …
