The first set of results in a suite of eddy-resolving Boussinesq, hydrostatic simulations is presented. Each set member consists of an initially linear stratification and shear as in the Eady problem, but this profile occupies only a limited region of a channel and is allowed to spin-down via baroclinic instability. The diagnostic focus is on the spatial structure and scaling of the eddy transport...
Results from an eddy-admitting and a non-eddy admitting ocean circulation model with parameterizations for barotropic tide-induced bottom friction mixing are compared to two observation data sets. The use of tide-induced vertical viscosity and diffusivity in addition to other large-scale drivers of ocean mixing processes such as wind and current shear leads to moderate improvements and more realistic...
