Resonant Wind-Driven Mixing in the Ocean Boundary Layer

Creator:

Skyllingstad, Eric D., Smyth, W. D., and Crawford, G. B.

Abstract:

The role of resonant wind forcing in the ocean boundary layer was examined using an ocean large-eddy simulation (LES) model. The model simulates turbulent flow in a box, measuring ~100–300 m on a side, whose top coincides with the ocean surface. Horizontal boundary conditions are periodic, and time-dependent wind forcing...
