The past twenty years has seen the offshore outsourcing of post-harvest
fish processing gain unprecedented momentum. The growth in offshore
processing is a further stage in an increasingly globalised fisheries value
chain. Raw material is head and gutted, then frozen, and transported to
processing sites in Asia (especially China). The...
The authors present inferences of diapycnal diffusivity from a compilation of over 5200 microstructure
profiles. As microstructure observations are sparse, these are supplemented with indirect measurements of
mixing obtained from (i) Thorpe-scale overturns from moored profilers, a finescale parameterization applied to
(ii) shipboard observations of upper-ocean shear, (iii) strain as...
