Vertical scale of turbulent flow layer by sloped topography and mode-1 internal wave induced currents (Gemmrich and Klymak, 2015), determined from (pi U)/N for cross-slope U about 100 m AB. Results are on page 21 of thesis draft (135 m at Slope, and 250 m at Axis).
Slope - Near-inertial (possibly some intermittent pulses, difficult to say at Slope):
Slope - Semidiurnal (appears more similar than inertial, also difficult to say):
Axis - Near-inertial (some intermittent pulses are spot on):
Axis - Semidiurnal (general seasonality looks similar):
Slope (sub-diurnal and semidiurnal):
Axis (near-inertial and semidiurnal):
Archiving for reference. New issue for discussion updates.
