Deep ocean mixing mismatch between model and observational estimates

Abstract The vertical diffusivity in the ocean is known to vary widely across the global ocean, and understanding this variation is essential for simulating water mass transformation and global ocean circulation. Here, we propose an approach combining a global ocean circulation model with a steady-s...
