Water Mass Modification and Mixing Rates in a 1/12 degree Simulation of the Canadian Arctic Archipelago

Strong spatial differences in diapycnal mixing across the Canadian Arctic Archipelago are diagnosed in a 1/128 basin-scale model. Changes in mass flux between water flowing into or out of several regions are analyzed using a volume-integrated advection–diffusion equation, and focus is given to dense...
