Turbulence Measurements in Shallow Water from a Subsurface Moored Moving Platform
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2013)Preliminary results are presented from a moored, autonomous instrument measuring the upper ocean turbulent dissipation rate together with the surface gravity wave field. Observations are made in the area approximately 30 ... -
Turbulence structure in the upper ocean: a comparative study of observations and modeling
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2014-04)Observations of turbulent dissipation rates measured by two independent instruments are compared with numerical model runs to investigate the injection of turbulence generated by sea surface gravity waves. The nearsurface ...
