Oceanic mixing is largely due to turbulence arising from instabilities. This proposal will address the effects of velocity fluctuations of inertial oscillations in producing a shear field which will cause the breaking of internal waves. The study combines analytical and numerical modeling. PI's have recently collected oceanographic data which has guided them in the construction of the model to be used.

海洋混合很大程度上是由于不稳定性引起的湍流。 该提案将解决惯性振荡的速度波动在产生剪切场时的影响，该剪切场将导致内波破裂。 该研究结合了分析模型和数值模型。 PI 最近收集了海洋学数据，这些数据指导他们构建要使用的模型。
