Upper Ocean Mixing
Abstract
My long-term goal is to identify, quantify, and parameterize the major mixing processes in the upper ocean. My scientific objectives are to measure mixing directly with microstructure sensors and to relate these measurements to the larger scales producing the mixing in such a way that the results can be compared with either the large-scale changes resulting from the mixing or with theoretical predictions of mixing rates. My technological objectives are to develop instruments and sensors to measure the major mixing parameters.
