dc.description.abstract | Internal tides and their impact on vertical mixing near the continental slope of the southwestern East Sea were investigated using 3 sets of CTD, LADCP, and free falling Microstructure shear profiler (TurboMAP) measurements collected for 26 hours in 2-hour interval. The profiles span the whole water column from the surface to near bottom (~ 260 m). Semi-diurnal internal tide was the strongest below the main thermocline (150-200 m) where 5ºC isotherm displacements larger than 30 m were observed. Turbulence dissipation rate ε and vertical diffusivity K_z estimated using shear profiles reveal the presence of mixing events below the main thermocline as well as in the mixed layer. The value of K_z below the main thermocline reached in the range of 10-3‒ 10-2 m2 s-1 order of 2 higher than that in the open ocean, which seems to be associated with vertical mixing induced by internal tides. Mean value of K_z through the whole water column was 8x10-4 m2 s-1 and that under the thermocline (about 70 m to bottom) was 3x10-4 m2 s-1. Methods of vertical diffusivity assessment based on TurboMAP shear profiles and on density inversion calculated from temperature and salinity profiles were compared. | - |
