Note on the Bulk Estimate of the Energy Dissipation Rate in the Oceanic Bottom Boundary Layer

The dissipation of the kinetic energy (KE) associated with oceanic flows is believed to occur primarily in the oceanic bottom boundary layer (BBL), where bottom drag converts the KE from mean flows to heat loss through irreversible mixing at molecular scales. Due to the practical difficulties associ...
