• Spatial and temporal variability of global ocean mixing inferred from Argo profiles (2012, methodology): “…by using the assumed constant or measured ratio between shear and strain (Rw) along with the latitudinal dependence of the internal wave field, to form an estimate of the rate of turbulent kinetic energy dissipation [Polzin et al., 1995], which can then be related to the diapycnal diffusivity k.”
• What is the near-inertial band and why is it different from the rest of the internal wave spectrum? (2001, background): “The theory has been extended by Polzin et al. (1995) to allow for different spectral shapes and by Sun and Kunze (1999a, b) to include the effects of vertical divergence.”
