Turbulent length scales in a fast-flowing, weakly stratified, strait: Cook Strait, New Zealand

<p>There remains much to be learned about the full range of turbulent motions in the ocean. Here we consider turbulence and overturn scales in the relatively shallow, weakly stratified, fast-flowing tidal flows of Cook Strait, New Zealand. With flow speeds reaching 3&thinsp;m&thinsp...
