Ocean mixing induced by three-dimensional structure of equatorial mode tropical instability waves in the Pacific Ocean

Observations have revealed that tropical instability waves (TIWs) play an important role in the ocean mixing of the equatorial thermocline. However, most studies have not distinguished the individual effects from the TIWs’ two modes, and most of them focused on the effect of the TIW-induced vertical...
