Oceanic Mixing
The present knowledge of oceanic mixing is summarized. Two processes, 'advection' and 'diffusion, ' which contribute substantially to oceanic mixing and their interaction are recognized in the mechanism of mixing. Environmental features of the sea in relation to advective and diffusive processes are also described. (Author).
Ocean Mixing
This book examines how large-scale processes drive centimetre-scale mixing throughout the stratified ocean. It explores the primary factors affecting mixing and turbulence, and reviews insights from laboratory studies and numerical modelling. It is an excellent reference for researchers and graduate students in oceanography and related fields.

Ocean Mixing
Ocean Mixing: Drivers, Mechanisms and Impacts presents a broad panorama of one of the most rapidly-developing areas of marine science. It highlights the state-of-the-art concerning knowledge of the causes of ocean mixing, and a perspective on the implications for ocean circulation, climate, biogeochemistry and the marine ecosystem. This edited volume places a particular emphasis on elucidating the key future questions relating to ocean mixing, and emerging ideas and activities to address them, including innovative technology developments and advances in methodology. Ocean Mixing is a key reference for those entering the field, and for those seeking a comprehensive overview of how the key cur...
Ocean Circulation and Climate
Diapycnal mixing in the ocean interior is driven by a wide range of processes, each with distinct governing physics and unique global geography. Here we review the primary processes responsible for turbulent mixing in the ocean interior, with an emphasis on active work from the past decade. We conclude with a discussion of global patterns of mixing and their importance for regional and large-scale modeling accuracy.
Mixing to Mesoscale
Before the Mixing to Mesoscale URI, work being done on various aspects of oceanic mixing had little or no coordination. Oceanic measurements were carried out piecemeal, with insufficient time to relate them to measurements at other times and places; numerical and laboratory studies simulating oceanic mixing processes did not address the crucial questions needed to interpret the oceanic measurements. Furthermore, conceptual and analytical models were not related to specific processes. Consequently, there was no way to test basic notions--such as most mixing occurs at oceanic boundaries, and vertical fluxes result from the mixed water moving along sloping isopycnal surfaces. To improve this situation, we brought together two observationalists studying small scales (Gregg and Sanford), a laboratory experimentalist (Van Atta), a numerical modeler (Riley), and a theorist interested in the mesoscale (Rhines). Meetings during the first year improved our understanding of problems in the different aspects of mixing and defined much of the work to be done. Some research, however, was not anticipated early on.
