3 DIMES Status as of November 2015 Funded proposals submi\ed to NSF (US) and NERC (UK): 2006, funding star<ng July 2007 Field work: Analysis proposals: Now: final analysis stage. See JPO special collec<on & DIMES web site publica<on list. For many of us, this means that we re now asking how to apply the ideas that have emerged from DIMES to the en<re Southern Ocean (and beyond.)

5 Mo<va<on: Meridional Overturning in the Southern Ocean Meridional overturning depends on along- isopycnal adiaba<c mixing, which is difficult to characterize. Diapycnal mixing could be high over rough topography and could short- circuit the adiaba<c pathways.
6 Implementa<on: Observa<onal campaign Hypotheses: Diapycnal mixing smaller over smooth topography and to increase over rough topography in Drake Passage. Isopycnal mixing varies with depth and posi<on, influenced by cri<cal layer.
7 Implementa<on: Observa<onal campaign Components: Tracer release (yellow star): tracked annually for diapycnal and horizontal spread. Microstructure surveys: during annual research cruises Acous<cally- tracked floats: approximately 180 at 2 levels UK mooring (blue star) Modeling (global and process, US and UK)

10 Isopycnal Mixing LaCasce et al, JPO, 2014 DIMES floats and model simula<ons provide consistent effec<ve eddy diffusivity (800 ± 200 m 2 s - 1 ) upstream of Drake Passage. Open ques<ons: o How do we characterize eddy mixing in Drake Passage? o What is ver<cal structure of eddy s<rring? o How much of s<rring by eddies can a parameteriza<on explain?

Open ques<ons: What sets diapycnal mixing? Do topography, current speed, other processes ma\er? What happens in upper ocean? How does wind drive mixing?
13 Implementa<on: Analysis and modeling US efforts: Parallel Ocean Program (POP): float releases used to plan experiment, to evaluate uncertain<es (Griesel et al, 2010), and to assess hypotheses (Chen et al, 2015) Geoid + al<metry idealized model (Klocker et al, 2012): concluded a million Lagrangian par<cles would be appropriate Regional modeling with MITgcm (Tulloch et al, 2014): used to interpret isopycnal mixing upstream of Drake Passage Southern Ocean State Es<mate (Mazloff et al): constrained circula<on to evaluate par<cle advec<on and tracer mo<ons (Wang et al, 2015; Messias et al, 2015)

15 Implementa<on: Expected Contribu<ons to Sustained Observa<ons DIMES was a process study with no plans to build sustained observa<ons, but.. EM- APEX plauorm development and data product development have led to more work in Antarc<c margins Growing interna<onal interest in process studies and sustained observa<ons (UK, Australia, Japan, France, India)
16 Implementa<on: What helped integrate modeling and observa<ons? Isopycnal: Observa<ons are sparse, so modeling is enormously beneficial for planning, interpreta<on, assimila<on Integrated interpreta<on takes <me. Annual mee<ngs, some telecons, and collabora<ve work help bring ideas to frui<on. Diapycnal: Not ready yet: models need many ver<cal levels, <dal forcing, and internal wave genera<on
17 Difficul<es (scien<fic, administra<ve, or otherwise) On the whole, DIMES has been successful Challenges mostly beyond our control and inherent in sea- going work in a remote area (severe weather, med- evacs + death of ship captain, ship repairs, too li\le tracer shipped from supplier, floats with ballas<ng problems, lost HRP) On shore: UK/US collabora<on exposed visa problems DIMES successes are a testament to resilience.
18 Coordina<on between agencies 11 cruises alterna<ng between US and UK ships
19 Data sharing: CCHDO at Scripps CCHDO=CLIVAR Carbon Hydrographic Data Office US1 data page on DIMES web site: see h\p://dimes.ucsd.edu
20 Challenges to data management Data requirements rela<vely new; PIs unsure of requirements and (in some cases) s<ll working on repor<ng data. UK and US data have different specific data management requirements (BODC vs CCHDO/NODC) DIMES involves a number of unconven<onal data types: Microstructure Floats CTD and XCTD co- located with microstructure EM- APEX Voluminous model output
21 Data management successes Microstructure: decision to allow turbulent mixing CPT to take the lead on defining requirements. Push for CF compliant netcdf. Implemented password protected data management to allow data sharing amongst DIMES researchers prior to official release. CCHDO has implemented data management system that is seamless with other hydrographic data management.
22 Science emerging from DIMES Should DIMES results lead directly to a CPT? Not obvious: DIMES is an interna<onal project with strong modeling component. Would want to coordinate with other process studies. Should DIMES results guide future process studies? Undoubtedly- - - DIMES was simultaneously too big (for resolving detailed mixing processes) and too small (for capturing integrated Southern Ocean mixing). Themes: Diapycnal: Topographically- generated turbulence (e.g. topographic lee waves and their impact on mixing) Isopycnal: Topographic stress, topographic barriers, and non- local mixing; Spa<ally varying lateral mixing
