Profiling Dissipation Measurements using (chi)pods on Moored Profilers in Luzon Strait

Abstract

The principal objectives of this project are to: quantify the energy losses to turbulence dissipation in the Luzon Strait in a systematic, comprehensive and extended way; quantify the spring-neap variation in these energy losses; obtain meaningful, long-term observations of the turbulent heat and momentum flux profiles in Luzon Strait, from which useful parameterizations can be derived.
