Enhanced diapycnal mixing with polarity-reversing internal solitary waves revealed by seismic reflection data
<p>Shoaling internal solitary waves near the Dongsha Atoll in the South China Sea dissipate their energy and enhance diapycnal mixing, which have an important impact on the oceanic environment and primary productivity. The enhanced diapycnal mixing is patchy and instantaneous. Evaluating its s...
