Model output and analysis notebooks - stratified tidal bottom boundary layer LES

Stratified Tidal Bottom Boundary Layer Large-Eddy Simulations Madelaine G. Rosevear [1,2]1. School of Earth and Oceans, University of Western Australia, Crawley, Australia2. Institute of Marine and Antarctic Studies, University of Tasmania, Hobart, Australia Overview This dataset accompanies the study _“Turbulence and mixing in deep-water stratified tidal bottom boundary layers”_, which investigates the dynamics of the tidally-forced and thermally-stratified ocean bottom boundary layer (BBL) using large-eddy simulations (LES) performed with the **Diablo** computational fluid dynamics code. The simulations explore how stratification, tidal period, and bottom turbulence intensity control the structure and evolution of the bottom mixed layer (BML) and the overlying pycnocline. See [this preprint](https://essopenarchive.org/users/928584/articles/1299991-turbulence-and-mixing-in-stratified-tidal-bottom-boundary-layers) for a description of the model and experiments.
