Note on the redistribution and dissipation of tidal energy over mid-ocean ridges

The redistribution and dissipation of internal wave energy arising from the conversion at mid-ocean ridges of the barotropic tide is studied in a set of numerical experiments. A two-dimensional non-hydrostatic model with 100 m horizontal and 10–25 m vertical resolution is used to represent the detai...
