Near-inertial internal gravity waves in the ocean
We review the physics of near-inertial waves (NIWs) in the ocean and the observations,
theory, and models that have provided our present knowledge. NIWs appear nearly …

Changes in internal wave‐driven mixing across the Arctic Ocean: Finescale estimates from an 18‐year pan‐Arctic record
HV Dosser, M Chanona, S Waterman… - Geophysical …, 2021 - Wiley Online Library
The Arctic climate is changing rapidly, with dramatic sea ice declines and increasing upper‐

Decadal observations of internal wave energy, shear, and mixing in the western Arctic Ocean
As Arctic sea ice declines, wind energy has increasing access to the upper ocean, with
potential consequences for ocean mixing, stratification, and turbulent heat fluxes. Here, we …

Wind‐driven mixing at intermediate depths in an ice‐free Arctic Ocean
Abstract Recent seasonal Arctic Ocean sea ice retreat is a major indicator of polar climate
change. The Arctic Ocean is generally quiescent with the interior basins characterized by …

Turbulent mixing during late summer in the ice–ocean boundary layer in the Central Arctic Ocean: Results from the MOSAiC expedition
We examined mixing processes within the ice–ocean boundary layer (IOBL) close to the
geographic North Pole, with an emphasis on wind‐driven sea ice drift. Observations were …

Turbulent mixing in a changing Arctic Ocean
TP Rippeth, EC Fine - Oceanography, 2022 - JSTOR
Historically, the Arctic Ocean has been considered an ocean of low variability and weak
turbulent mixing. However, the decline in seasonal sea ice cover over the past couple of …
