520 3# ‡aDescribes method for calculating diapycnal diffusivity (Kz) from moored acoustic Doppler current profiler (ADCP) velocity shear profiles moored at 2,400 m depth, 600 m above seafloor in Shag Rocks Passage in North Scotia Ridge, Atlantic sector of Southern Ocean, and produces section of Kz along North Scotia Ridge to set spatial context for moored time series. Discusses modification to method for use with mooring data and time series thus obtained. Uses spectral analysis to identify significant periodicities, and identifies potential sources of temporal variability in Kz. No significant signal at annual or semiannual periods was found, but there was evidence of signals at periods of approximately 14 days (likely due to spring/neap tide cycle) and at periods of 3.8 and 2.6 days, most likely due to topographically trapped waves propagating around local seamount. This was confirmed using model of baroclinic topographically trapped waves. Diffusivity is anticorrelated with rotary coefficient (indicating that stronger mixing occurs during times of upward energy propagation), which suggests that mixing occurs due to breaking of internal waves generated at topography.
