Ocean Circulation Kinetic Energy: Reservoirs, Sources, and Sinks (2009, background): “Hibiya et al. (2002) discussed the effects of PSI, and Mackinnon and Winters (2005, 2007) found it permits the M2 tide to efficiently transfer energy into the inertial peak at the latitude where σM2 ≈ 2f .”
Global Abyssal Mixing Inferred from Lowered ADCP Shear and CTD Strain Profiles (2006, background): “Fig 12a b live 4/C D ow nloaded from http://journals.am etsoc.org/jpo/article-pdf/36/8/1553/4483187/jpo2926_1.pdf by guest on 12 June 2020 Winters 2004, personal communication; MacKinnon and Winters 2005; Simmons 2006).”
TOWARD REGIONAL CHARACTERIZATIONS OF THE OCEANIC INTERNAL WAVEFIELD (2010, background): “b has also been cited as providing a pathway for the transfer of energy from low-mode internal tides [Hibiya et al., 2002; MacKinnon and Winters, 2005].”
Seasonality of submesoscale dynamics in the Kuroshio Extension (2016, background): “…submesoscales, likely through mesoscale advection and refraction, and dispersion [e.g., Ponte and Klein, 2015; Alford et al., 2016, and references therein] and parametric subharmonic instability (PSI) [e.g., MacKinnon and Winters, 2005], though the LLC simulations are unlikely to fully resolve PSI.”
Direct Breaking of the Internal Tide near Topography: Kaena Ridge, Hawaii (2008, unknown): “A similar time scale has been postulated for parametric subharmonic instability of internal waves (MacKinnon and Winters 2005), lending indirect evidence to the importance of this wave–wave interaction to the direct evidence presented by Carter and Gregg (2006). d. Implications of near-seafloor…”
Internal waves across the Pacific (2007, background): “The latter mechanism should be particularly efficient at a ‘‘critical latitude’’ of lc =2 8.8N, where the M2 tidal frequency is exactly twice the local inertial frequency [ MacKinnon and Winters, 2005 ] (hereinafter referred to as MW05).”
Model-predicted distribution of wind-induced internal wave energy in the world's oceans (2008, unknown): “Furthermore, the pathway of the generated internal tide energy down to dissipation scales was examined [Hibiya et al., 1996, 1998, 2002; MacKinnon and Winters, 2005; Furuichi et al., 2005] to clarify the global distribution of tide-induced diapycnal diffusivity [St. Laurent et al., 2002; Hibiya and…”
Density Stratification, Turbulence, but How Much Mixing? (2008, background): “The mechanism by which energy is extracted from the upwardly radiating waves is only operative in latitudes less than 28.9◦ for which half the M2 tidal frequency is greater than the local inertial frequency (MacKinnon & Winters 2005).”
Sensitivity of the Ocean State to the Vertical Distribution of Internal-Tide-Driven Mixing (2013, background): “) parametric subharmonic instability (PSI) at critical latitudes (MacKinnon and Winters 2005), nonlinear wave–wave interactions, but also dissipation of lee waves and near FIG.”
Propagation of Low-Mode Internal Waves through the Ocean (2006, background): “9°) oceanic interior, eventually contributing to the background levels of open-ocean turbulence (Hibiya and Nagasawa 2004; MacKinnon and Winters 2005).”
