Near-inertial waves mixing and ocean background observations in the eastern tropical North Atlantic (2006-2019) for evaluating Earth system models ...
A synoptic data set of near-inertial wave (NIW) mixing events and associated heat and momentum fluxes as well as oceanic background parameters is provided. The data set focuses on the vertical distribution of upper-ocean turbulence of 20 NIW events observed during 14 research cruises to the eastern...
