Fluorescent Dye Tracer Studies of the Coastal Mixing and Optics (CMO) Program from Lamont Doherty Earth Observatory (LDEO)
Entry ID:
CMO_LDEO_DYE_MIXING
Summary
Abstract:
As part of the Coastal Mixing and Optics (CMO) Program, Lamont-Doherty
Earth Observatory (LDEO) of Columbia University performed tracer studies using fluorescent dyes to study small scale mixing and circulation near a frontal boundary. A fluorescent dye tracer, Rhodamine-WT, was injected from a towed sled into the benthic boundary layer (BBL) at the foot of the shelfbreak front in the Middle ...
