Off-bottom turbulence expansions of unbounded flow over a deep-ocean ridge

Internal wave breaking upon sloping seafloors is a potential source of turbulent mixing in the deep-ocean, but we lack details on off-bottom breaking. Turbulence processes are relevant for the dispersal away from the seafloor of suspended materials like those emanating from thermal vents and artific...
