Internal Wave Driven Mixing and Transport in the Coastal Ocean

Abstract

The long-term goal of this research is to develop improved parameterizations of internal wave driven mixing in global circulation models where such small-scale processes are not resolved (i.e. occur as subgrid-scale processes).
