Energetics of Barotropic and Baroclinic Tides in the Monterey Bay Area (2012, methodology): “The excursion parameter is used to examine the nonlinearity of the waves (Balmforth et al. 2002; St. Laurent and Garrett 2002; Vlasenko et al. 2005; Legg and Huijts 2006; Garrett and Kunze 2007).”
Density Stratification, Turbulence, but How Much Mixing? (2008, background): “The dynamics and fate of radiating internal waves in natural water bodies are the subject of a large body of research, well beyond the scope of this review (e.g., see Alford 2003, Garrett & Kunze 2007).”
The Impact of Abyssal Mixing Parameterizations in an Ocean General Circulation Model (2009, background): “…abyssal mixing in the ocean (Munk and Wunsch 1998; Garrett and St. Laurent 2002; Huang 2004; Jayne et al. 2004; Wunsch and Ferrari 2004; Garrett and Kunze 2007), and the reader is referred to them for a more general discussion of ocean mixing, its energetics, and its relationship to the ocean’s…”
Turning Ocean Mixing Upside Down (2015, neutral): “The velocity of an iso-pycnal surface, say v r , in the direction normal to itself is (Marshall et al. 1999) To calculate the diapycnal velocity ~ e , we must accordingly subtract v r from the Eulerian velocity: This expression for the full diapycnal velocity, normal to the isopycnal, is derived, fo”
On the generation and evolution of nonlinear internal waves in the South China Sea (2010, background): “With g > 1, d < 1, and Frt 1 the ridge near the Batan islands is in regime 4 ofGarrett and Kunze [2007]. This regime features nonlinear internal hydraulic jumps and internal waves generated at higher harmonics of the forcing frequency.”
Ocean Circulation Kinetic Energy: Reservoirs, Sources, and Sinks (2009, background): “Internal tidal generation at topography has been reviewed by Garrett and Kunze (2007), and no more is said here.”
Challenges and Prospects in Ocean Circulation Models (2019, background): “The energy sources, particularly the tidal energy source, are relatively well understood (Bell, 1975; Garrett and Kunze, 2007; Falahat et al., 2014) compared to the sinks.”
Three‐dimensional, nonhydrostatic numerical simulation of nonlinear internal wave generation and propagation in the South China Sea (2011, methodology): “As described by Garrett and Kunze [2007], Vlasenko et al. [2005], and Laurent and Garrett [2002], internal tides dominate when the excursion param-”
Sensitivity of the Ocean State to the Vertical Distribution of Internal-Tide-Driven Mixing (2013, background): “…topography in the stratiﬁed ocean, leading to, respectively, the generation of internal lee waves (e.g., Nikurashin and Ferrari 2011) and baroclinic tides (internal waves at the tidal frequency, also called internal tides, e.g., Egbert and Ray 2000; Niwa and Hibiya 2001; Garrett and Kunze 2007).”
Radiation and Dissipation of Internal Waves Generated by Geostrophic Motions Impinging on Small-Scale Topography: Application to the Southern Ocean (2010, background): “However, theories of topographic wave generation have focused on the barotropic tidal component, which is believed to dominate wave radiation in the midlatitudes (e.g., Bell 1975a; Llewellyn Smith and Young 2002; Khatiwala 2003; Garrett and Kunze 2007).”
Direct Breaking of the Internal Tide near Topography: Kaena Ridge, Hawaii (2008, neutral): “The exact mechanism of supercriticality depends on a number of parameters—the aspect ratio of the topography relative to the internal waves, the width of the obstacle relative to the tidal excursion, and the strength of the flow relative to the obstacle height and stratification (Baines 1995; Garret”
Energetics of M2 Barotropic-to-Baroclinic Tidal Conversion at the Hawaiian Islands (2008, background): “Such beams have been observed elsewhere on the Kaena Ridge (e.g., Nash et al. 2006; Aucan et al. 2006), but their formation is dependent on the criticality of the local slope (Balmforth et al. 2002; Garrett and Kunze 2007).”
The Whittard Canyon: a case study of submarine canyon processes (2016, neutral): “However, the direction of the propagating internal waves onto the shelf is quite random (Holt and Thorpe, 1997), in contradiction to the generally accepted view that across-shelf internal wave energy flux is controlled by the orientation of the shelf break (Garrett and Kunze, 2007).”
Radiation and Dissipation of Internal Waves Generated by Geostrophic Motions Impinging on Small-Scale Topography: Theory (2010, background): “Any one of these motions can generate internal waves through interaction with bottom topography; however, most of the recent theoretical work has focused on barotropic tides (e.g., Garrett and St. Laurent 2002; Garrett and Kunze 2007).”
Overturning circulation driven by breaking internal waves in the deep ocean (2013, background): “…Z gn>g n @ @z kvN2 dV : (5) Note, that we consider here only mixing processes due to breaking of internal gravity waves and thus do not account for water-mass transformation by processes due to the nonlinear equation of state such as thermobaricity and cabelling [e.g., Klocker and McDougall, 2010].”
