Langmuir Turbulence in the HYCOM Ocean Model
(Master thesis, 2017)The impact of parameterising the turbulent mixing induced by surface wave-driven Langmuir turbulence is investigated for a basin-scale configuration of the hybrid-coordinate ocean circulation model HYCOM. Two-year, non-data ... -
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 ...
