This project investigates mixing processes in the Southern Ocean that influence carbon dioxide absorption and ocean circulation. It aims to quantify and model the effects of various mixing mechanisms to improve understanding of their impact on climate change and ocean dynamics.
Because they control the rate at which water sinking at high latitudes returns to the surface in the Southern Ocean, mixing processes govern the capacity of the Southern Ocean to take up CO2 and the sensitivity of the Meridional Overturning Circulation (MOC) to climate change.
Mixing processes also play a key role in the formation and meridional transport of Southern Ocean mode and intermediate waters.
Recent in situ estimates of turbulent mixing indicate remarkably intense and widespread turbul…
