Diapycnal displacement, diffusion, and distortion of tracers in the ocean
<jats:title>Abstract</jats:title> <jats:p>Small-scale mixing drives the diabatic upwelling that closes the abyssal ocean overturning circulation. Indirect microstructure measurements of in-situ turbulence suggest that mixing is bottom-enhanced over rough topography, implying downw...
