Modeling Internal Tides and Mixing Over Ocean Ridges: HOME Analysis

Abstract

The goals of this work are to obtain a better understanding and predictive capability for the processes involved in deep ocean boundary mixing caused by interactions of the internal tide with sloping topography as functions of key environmental parameters, such as ocean topography, ambient stratification, latitude, and tidal energy.
