The Argo Program has been implemented and sustained for almost two decades, as a
global array of about 4000 profiling floats. Argo provides continuous observations of ocean …

Understanding how turbulence leads to the enhanced irreversible transport of heat and
other scalars such as salt and pollutants in density-stratified fluids is a fundamental and …

The ocean is a key component of the Earth system (Chapter 1) as it provides essential life
supporting services (Inniss et al. 2017). For example, it stores heat trapped in the …

Turbulent mixing from breaking oceanic internal waves drives a vertical transport of water,
heat and other climatically important tracers in the ocean, thereby playing an important role …

Meteorological Society Volume 98 Issue 11 (2017) Jump to Content Jump to Main Navigation …

We revisit the challenges and prospects for ocean circulation models following Griffies et al..
Over the past decade, ocean circulation models evolved through improved understanding …

Until recently, high-resolution global modeling of tides has been done separately from high-
resolution global modeling of the atmospherically-forced oceanic general circulation. Here …

We review the physics of near-inertial waves (NIWs) in the ocean and the observations,
theory, and models that have provided our present knowledge. NIWs appear nearly …

Turbulent mixing in the ocean is key to regulate the transport of heat, freshwater and
biogeochemical tracers, with strong implications for Earth's climate. In the deep ocean, tides …

Global ship-based programs, with highly accurate, full water column physical and
biogeochemical observations repeated decadally since the 1970s, provide a crucial …
