Small Flows with Big Consequences: Wave-, Turbulence- and Shear current-Driven mixing under a water surface
The triple interactions of surface waves, turbulence, and shear currents (WTS) in the upper layer of the ocean play a key role in the Earth’s climate and ecology by controlling fluxes of heat, gas, and momentum between ocean and atmosphere. Climate simulations have large systematic errors because...
