Wind Waves in the Coupled Climate System (2012, unknown): “, Jähne and Hauβecker 1998), where the transmission is mainly molecular. In this layer the transfer of gas is 1,000 times slower than for the transmission of momentum. Upward from this layer, the transmission is dominated by turbulence, which is typically considered to be driven by wind, and gas tra”
Challenges and Prospects in Ocean Circulation Models (2019, background): “, 2014) have led to the development of a variety of recent parameterizations of wavedriven turbulence (Harcourt and D’Asaro, 2008; Van Roekel et al., 2012; Harcourt, 2015; Reichl et al., 2016).”

Part 2: Model validation with improved source term parameterization (2013, background): “, 2009), but it is also the likely source of mixing in the upper ocean via Langmuir circulations (e.g., Leibovich, 1980; Li and Garrett, 1997; Harcourt et al., 2006; Sullivan and McWilliams, 2010; Van Roekel et al., 2012).”
The form and orientation of Langmuir cells for misaligned winds and waves (2012, methodology): “Harcourt and D’Asaro [2008] also argue that the wave spectra used to force LES models can have a dramatic impact on the scaling of LT. [10] Many previous LES studies have used a Stokes drift profile from monochromatic waves, but Harcourt and D’Asaro [2008] have shown that an empirical wave spectrum ”
A global wave parameter database for geophysical applications. Part 1: Wave-current turbulence interaction parameters for the open ocean based on traditional parameterizations (2008, background): “Recently, Harcourt and D’Asaro (2008) proposed a revised Langmuir parameter LaSt, in which the mean Stokes drift between the surface and one fifth of the MLD is used instead of its surface value.”
