Global energy conversion rate from geostrophic flows into internal lee waves in the deep ocean (2011, background): “[23] To put our results in perspective, the energy conversion from geostrophic flows into lee waves is approximately 20% of the conversion from barotropic to internal tides estimated to be of O(1) TW [Nycander, 2005].”
Radiation and Dissipation of Internal Waves Generated by Geostrophic Motions Impinging on Small-Scale Topography: Theory (2010, methodology): “Internal wave generation by the dominant M2 tide component is estimated globally by Nycander (2005) using the linear theory of internal wave generation developed by Bell (1975a,b) and modified by Llewellyn Smith and Young (2002) to account for the finite ocean depth.”
Radiation and Dissipation of Internal Waves Generated by Geostrophic Motions Impinging on Small-Scale Topography: Application to the Southern Ocean (2010, methodology): “Thus, energy radiation computed for the Drake Passage region using linear theory (Bell 1975a,b; Nycander 2005) might be somewhat overestimated.”
Overturning circulation driven by breaking internal waves in the deep ocean (2013, methodology): “[5] We use previous estimates of the energy conversion into internal waves by tides [Nycander, 2005] and geostrophic motions [Nikurashin and Ferrari, 2011] and a recent parameterization [St.”
The Tides They Are A‐Changin': A Comprehensive Review of Past and Future Nonastronomical Changes in Tides, Their Driving Mechanisms, and Future Implications (2020, background): “%) of energy is lost to the internal tide in the abyssal ocean (Egbert & Ray, 2001; Munk & Wunsch, 1998; Nycander, 2005).”
Preliminary simulations of internal waves and mixing generated by finite amplitude tidal flow over isolated topography (2006, background): “Nycander (2005) outlines the regimes delimited by Fr: for large RL (i.e. the quasi-steady flow limit (Bell, 1975)) the flow response to the topography is linear if Fr >> 1.”
