Diapycnal mixing variations induced by subthermocline eddies observed in the north Pacific western boundary region

Recent observations prove that subthermocline eddies (SEs) are energetic in the north Pacific western boundary region, where interhemispheric waters meet. Our previous study showed that the SEs play an important role in isopycnal mixing of interhemispheric intermediate waters. Whether the SEs can in...
