eddy speed, so that eddy propagation does not suppress cross-current mixing. The gray line is obtained dividing K 0 by the suppression factor predicted by (20). (b) As in (a), but for the 58–60S latitude stripe in the core of the ACC. … The dashed black line shows from simulations where the meanflow is set equal to the eddy speed, so that eddy propagation does not suppress cross-current mixing. The gray line is obtained dividing K 0 by the …
