We investigate changes in the ocean circulation due to the variation of isopycnal diffusivity (κ
iso) in a global non-eddy-resolving model. Although isopycnal diffusion is thought to have …

2. Context Here, we report on the presentations and discussions that occurred during the
WTD workshop. The topic “Linking ocean mixing and circulation at various scales” provided …

The non‐local model of mixing based on internal wave breaking, IDEMIX, is implemented as
an enhancement of a turbulent kinetic energy closure model in three non‐eddy resolving …

Conceptual models are a vital tool for understanding the processes that maintain the global
ocean circulation, both in nature and in complex numerical ocean models. In this chapter we …

The parameterization IDEMIX for vertical mixing by breaking internal gravity waves is
evaluated in three different non-eddy resolving ocean models. Three different products of …

This thesis aims to formalize the stratification of the deep ocean as a function of buoyancy
and wind forcing. With the use of the ocean only model VEROS the AMOC is analysed in a …

This thesis aims to provide a better understanding of the role of ageostrophic processes in
ocean dynamics by analyzing three different case studies–the large-scale circulation, the …
