Enhanced Mixing Induced by Near-Inertial Waves Inferred by Glider Observation in the Northern South China Sea

Enhanced turbulence triggered by near-inertial wave (NIW) trapping by a mesoscale anticyclone and typhoon “Kompasu” was observed in the northern South China Sea. The observations provide evidence for the trapping of NIW packets of amplitude ~0.2 m/s near the base of an anticyclonic eddy, and of ~0.3...
