A global perspective on Langmuir turbulence in the ocean surface boundary layer (2012, unknown): “Below is a mixed layer where the character of the turbulence is controlled by the strength of the surface wind, buoyancy and waves (via Stokes drift) [ Grant and Belcher , 2009].”
Surface Wave Effects in the NEMO Ocean Model: Forced and Coupled Experiments (2015, background): “Its vertical profile (15) is very different from Langmuir parameterizations involving the shear of the Stokes drift velocity profile (McWilliams et al., 1997; Polton and Belcher , 2007; Grant and Belcher , 2009), − u′Hw′ · ∂vs ∂z .”
The form and orientation of Langmuir cells for misaligned winds and waves (2012, methodology): “…Smith, 1992; D’Asaro and Dairiki, 1997] and large eddy simulations (LES) of the Craik-Leibovich (CL) equations [Craik, 1977; Skyllingstad and Denbo, 1995; McWilliams et al., 1997; Noh et al., 2004; Sullivan et al., 2004, 2007; Li et al., 2005; Polton and Belcher, 2007; Grant and Belcher, 2009].”
Dynamics of Winds and Currents Coupled to Surface Waves (2010, background): “Grant & Belcher (2009) found the variance profiles to be insensitive to d St/h variations in the range 0.09–0.27 with an exponential Stokes profile.”
