Float-Derived Isopycnal Diffusivities in the DIMES Experiment

Float-Derived Isopycnal Diffusivities in the DIMES Experiment

As part of the Diapycnal and Isopycnal Mixing Experiment in the Southern Ocean (DIMES), 210 subsurface floats were deployed west of the Drake Passage on two targeted density surfaces. Absolute (single particle) diffusivities are calculated for the floats. The focus is on the meridional component, wh...
