Internal wave breaking and dissipation mechanisms on the continental slope/shelf
KG Lamb - Annual Review of Fluid Mechanics, 2014 - annualreviews.org
Internal waves are important physical phenomena on the continental shelf/slope. They are
often very energetic, and their breaking provides an important dissipation and mixing …

Tidally driven mixing in a numerical model of the ocean general circulation
Astronomical data reveals that approximately 3.5 terawatts (TW) of tidal energy is dissipated
in the ocean. Tidal models and satellite altimetry suggest that 1 TW of this energy is …

A parameterization of local and remote tidal mixing
Vertical mixing is often regarded as the Achilles' heel of ocean models. In particular, few
models include a comprehensive and energy‐constrained parameterization of mixing by …

Internal wave generation in a global baroclinic tide model
The energy flux out of barotropic tides and into internal waves (“conversion”) is computed
using a global domain multi-layer numerical model. The solution is highly baroclinic and …
