Mixing Dynamics in Abyssal Boundary Regions of the Ocean

9417018 Moum一个水平拖曳的身体完全仪表化，以解决水平剪切超过 测量沿着拖曳的湍流波动时，垂直尺度为1-70 m 路径将在科学实验中开发和测试。被拖走的尸体将被 能够在3000米以下的深度和倾斜边界100米以内作业。 科学实验将确定混合的代表性尺度， 地形起伏和水深突变区的内波 东太平洋大陆架，并将其与 远离边界的海洋。

9417018 Moum A horizontally-towed body fully instrumented to resolve horizontal shears over vertical scales of 1-70 m while measuring turbulent fluctuations along the towing path will be developed and tested in a scientific experiment. The towed body will be capable to operate at depths up to 3000 m and within 100 m of sloping boundaries. The science experiment will determine the representative scales of mixing and internal waves in an area of rough topography and abrupt bathymetry on the continental shelf of the Eastern Pacific and compare these to abyssal values in the interior of the ocean away from boundaries.
