Mechanisms for enhanced turbulence in the Drake Passage region of the Southern Ocean
The Southern Ocean is one of the most energetic regions of the world ocean due to intense winds and storm forcing, strong currents in the form of the Antarctic Circumpolar Current (ACC) interacting with steep topography, and enhanced mesoscale activity. Consequently, the Southern Ocean is believed …

Mixing in stably stratified turbulent flows: improved parameterizations of diapycnal mixing in oceanic flows
Mixing of fluid with different properties across a gravitationally stable density interface, due to background turbulence is an ubiquitous phenomenon in both natural and engineered flows. Fundamental understanding and quantitative prediction of turbulent mixing in stratified flows is a challenging …
