Neutral surfaces, along which most of the mixing in the ocean occurs, are notoriously difficult objects: they do not exist as well-defined surfaces, and as such can only be approximated. In a hypothetical ocean where neutral surfaces are…

Across the stable density stratification of the abyssal ocean, deep dense water is slowly propelled upward by sustained, though irregular, turbulent mixing. The resulting mean upwelling determines large-scale oceanic circulation properties…
Knowledge of the bottom topography, also called bathymetry, of rivers, seas or the ocean is important for many areas of maritime science and civil engineering. While direct measurements are possible, they are time consuming and expensive.…
