Yes, we have no abyssal mixing
Abstract. A number of indirect means for inferring turbulent mixing have been developed over the past two decades. In particular, a combination of internal wave/wave interaction theory and observations has suggested a relationship between the turbulence dissipation rate ε and levels of the vertical...
