On the Vertical Structure of Oceanic Mesoscale Tracer Diffusivities
Abstract Isopycnal mixing of tracers is important for ocean dynamics and biogeochemistry. Previous studies have primarily focused on the horizontal structure of mixing, but what controls its vertical structure is still unclear. This study investigates the vertical structure of the isopycnal tracer d...
